Investing Your Money – Jefferson County Taxpayers Earned Millions of Dollars in 2024!!

By Jerry DiTullio – JeffCo Treasurer/Public Trustee.

Experience Matters!

As Jefferson County Treasurer, I am responsible for investing those taxes dollars that are not immediately used to pay bills. I am proud to say that in 2024 we earned a record $29,238,560.33 in interest on our investments (unaudited). This money is used to pay for additional projects and services that benefit Jefferson County residents. 💯

The previous record was set in 2001 and was approx. $18 million.

Real Treasurer Experience Matters!

Signing of SB21-279 by the Governor at the JeffCo Admin Building. This bill allowed county treasurers to waive late interest and take multiple payments on property taxes during COVID. JeffCo Treasurer DiTullio worked with Senator Tammy Story on the bill language and advocated for the bill through the 2021 legislative session.
