Continuing Positive Change for Taxpayers

Delaware County Recorder Andrew Brenner doesn't just talk the talk when it comes to fiscal responsibility. He practices it every day - and has the track record to prove it.

 

Andy has recently had many letters to the editor supporting him and his reelection!

Brenner's office has come in under budget, allowing him to submit smaller budgets annually to the Delaware County Commissioners.

 

While the average county budget has increased each year by 3%, Andy Brenner has reduced the County Recorder's budget on average by 3% each year.

 

He has worked tirelessly to reign in the cost of contract-based indexing services; the new contract cut indexing services costs by 36.8%. Brenner also implemented new checks and balances in the office that keep costs down and increase accountability.

 

At the same time, Brenner's office is leading the state in electronic filing, significantly reducing the overall cost of paper-based systems, eliminating significant mail expenditures and requiring less travel for all parties involved. What's more, Brenner implemented electronic filing at no additional cost to the taxpayer.

 

These improvements have cut document turnaround time significantly; what once took a few days to several weeks is now processed and returned on the same day, sometimes within minutes of filing!

Brenner's office is admired statewide as a model of efficiency, fiscal responsibility and modernization. His re-election will continue this progress.

Brenner implemented a policy of masking of constituents' Social Security Numbers on documents filed with the recorder's office. He has also ordered the safekeeping of newly recorded documents in a fire-secure environment, and continues to oversee the restoration and repair of aging deed and mortgage books.

 

Smaller budgets, better accounting and the intelligent application of technology to improve efficiency all speak to Brenner's focus on the continual improvement of county government. His mind and his door are always open for all staff and constituents who bring new and better ideas for improving the office. 

 

"I appreciate your vote for re-election.    I will continue to modernize and reform the Recorder's office and work hard to improve the efficiency of your county government.    You have to do more with less,  and so should we.    That's why I will continue to fight every day for more efficiency, reduced costs and better services..."   -Andrew O. Brenner, Delaware County Recorder
