Statement from Mayor Demings Regarding Comments from Florida’s Governor and Chief Financial Officer | August 27, 2025
“Orange County Government fully cooperated with the Florida DOGE audit team providing all the data and documents requested. No employee was instructed to alter, change or delete any documents. 
While our employees may have read from or referred to notes or documents being discussed by the DOGE team, employees were not scripted in their remarks.
The state has offered no evidence to support its allegation that we were hiding information or acting without integrity. We welcome the opportunity for full public transparency on this issue.”
– Orange County Mayor Jerry L. Demings
