Checking Criminal History in Titusville
Begin with the office that created the Titusville record. City Police keeps reports, BCSO keeps bookings, the Clerk keeps filed cases, and FDLE maintains statewide criminal history.
- Submit a city request through JustFOIA, email, phone, mail, or the window.
- Give the event date, location, report number, and narrow description.
- Check BCSO when county custody followed.
- Use BECA for County Court or Circuit Court filings.
- Use FDLE for a statewide official search.
Titusville Police Department Records
The Titusville Police Records Section handles city police files. Call 321-567-3907 or email PoliceRecords.com. The city lists 555 South Washington Avenue and PO Box 2806.
Reports may be ready next workday, subject to review. Walk-in hours are Tuesday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., effective July 27, 2026.
Titusville Police Records Staff
Titusville identifies a Records Manager and four records specialists who handle police paperwork, dissemination, and retention. The team also transmits UCR statistics to FDLE in February and August. That staffing detail explains why the section is more than a copy counter.
The official Titusville Records Section is the primary source for its report process.

Titusville Arrests and Bookings
No official Titusville arrest blotter was located. A city arrest entering county custody appears through BCSO, while Titusville Police keeps its report.
Filed charges appear through BECA. Arrest does not prove guilt, and booking charges may change before filing.
Titusville JustFOIA Record Requests
Titusville launched JustFOIA on June 22, 2026, adding an anytime online request and tracking route. The Titusville public-records portal complements email at PoliceRecords@Titusville.com and phone help at 321-567-3907.
The portal image shows the citywide request route; police-record questions can still go straight to the Records Section.

Titusville Traffic-Homicide Reports
Ordinary crime and crash reports may be ready the next workday, but traffic-homicide records follow a stricter release path. Titusville states that the State Attorney must clear the material or the court case must reach disposition. A delay in that setting is not evidence that the report was lost.
Certified copies cost $1 per page. Letter pages are $0.15 one-sided or $0.20 two-sided; legal pages are $0.20 or $0.25. Research labor is $20.08 per hour after the first 15 minutes.
Where Titusville Records Go
Titusville Police creates the report. BCSO adds booking data, the Clerk adds the filed case, and qualifying data can reach FDLE.
Record flow: Titusville PD › Brevard County Courts › Florida Department of Law Enforcement
Recent activity may appear before a court filing. For older records, compare BECA and FDLE and obtain certified court proof when needed.
Titusville Police Record Custody
The Titusville Police Department remains the custodian for reports made by city officers even after a person enters county custody.

Titusville's Four-Dollar Inspection
Titusville has a highly local Police-to-Clerk handoff for a corrected defective-equipment citation. Within 30 days, TPD can inspect the repair for $4. If the equipment has been corrected, the department signs an Affidavit of Compliance. The driver then takes that affidavit to the Clerk of County Court at 400 South Street and pays the remaining amount. If the defect is not corrected, TPD does not certify it and the full fine remains due.
This process should not be confused with changing a criminal history. The affidavit documents an equipment correction tied to a citation. It does not expunge an arrest, seal a case, or correct FDLE repository data. The Titusville police contact handles the inspection and affidavit. The Brevard Clerk handles the court-side payment and case record. Keeping both receipts and the filed affidavit helps if the docket does not update as expected.
The workflow also shows why Titusville records do not stay inside one city office. A police action can create a city document and a county court entry. Searchers should follow the record to the office responsible for its current stage. A request for the inspection form belongs with TPD, while a request for the filed court disposition belongs with the Clerk.
Titusville Camera Data Needs Context
The FY2024 Titusville Community Redevelopment Agency report describes two Flock Safety cameras funded for parks chosen through calls-for-service hotspot analysis. The stated cost was $19,458. That is a named local public-safety program, but the published CRA figures require a geographic limit. Older property-check, traffic-stop, and burglary counts in CRA reports cover the redevelopment district. They are not citywide Titusville crime totals.
A camera program also is not a public criminal-history search. A person seeking a report tied to a specific event should use Titusville Records or JustFOIA and describe the date, place, and desired material. Exemptions may protect active investigative information or sensitive data. The city can explain what is public and whether responsive footage or records exist, but a published camera count alone does not identify an offender or establish a charge.
Titusville's position as the Brevard county seat adds another layer. The historic courthouse and Clerk location at 400 South Street handle county records, while Titusville Police maintains city reports. The city is also a Space Coast gateway, yet those civic facts do not change custody of a record. Police reports remain with TPD, bookings with BCSO, cases with the Clerk, and statewide history with FDLE.
Use each statistic for its stated purpose. Calls-for-service analysis guided where the park cameras were placed. It does not measure all crime in Titusville. Likewise, UCR reporting sent by the Records Section to FDLE in February and August is an aggregate reporting duty, not a live person-search portal. Individual record questions still require the report, booking, court, or state channel that fits the event.
The same care applies to report timing. “Next workday” describes when an ordinary crime or crash report may be ready. It does not override a public-record exemption, an active investigation, or the traffic-homicide clearance rule. A requester should ask what stage is holding the file rather than assume that a missing online result means no Titusville report was made.
When a request is large, Titusville's published research charge can matter. The city lists $20.08 per hour after the first 15 minutes. Letter-size copies cost $0.15 one-sided or $0.20 two-sided, legal-size copies cost $0.20 or $0.25, and certified copies cost $1 per page. Checks are payable to the City of Titusville. An estimate can change when actual review shows that more or less work is required.
A narrow JustFOIA request can help control that work. Name the police event, date range, location, report number if known, and the exact record sought. Avoid asking for every record that mentions a common name when a specific report will do. If the request concerns an officer response rather than a public copy, use the police service line identified by the city instead of treating JustFOIA as a dispatch channel.
Monday's closed walk-in window also needs a precise reading. Staff use Monday for fulfillment and document work with the State Attorney, Clerk, and other government offices. Online requests remain available, and the lobby or other city channels continue as described in the 2026 notice. A person who needs face-to-face Records help should plan for Tuesday through Friday, but a Monday portal submission can still enter the workflow.
Titusville's online and in-person routes follow the same public-access rules. A portal receipt proves that a request entered the system, not that every item is public. Keep the tracking number, cost estimate, and response. If only part is released, ask whether the balance is exempt, under review, held for traffic-homicide clearance, or kept by another agency.
For older Titusville criminal records, do not rely only on a current booking search. County custody data is one snapshot. BECA may show the filed charge and disposition, while FDLE may show qualifying statewide history. Certified court copies come from the Brevard Clerk. A careful self-review compares these layers and sends any correction to the office that owns the disputed fact.
JustFOIA's tracking feature is useful when the request crosses city departments, but it does not move county records into city custody. A Titusville police narrative belongs with TPD. A BCSO jail profile belongs with the sheriff. A criminal docket belongs with the Brevard Clerk. If the portal response says another custodian holds the item, use that routing information and submit a narrow follow-up. Repeating the same broad request to the city will not produce a county court file that Titusville does not maintain.
The five-person Records Section also performs retention and state reporting work that may not be visible at the public window. Its February and August UCR transmissions send aggregate crime data to FDLE. Those submissions do not replace an individual report request and should not be read as a current person-level criminal history. Aggregate counts describe reported categories over a period. An individual Titusville record needs identifiers tied to the event, booking, or court case. Keeping those uses separate prevents a citywide statistic from being mistaken for evidence about a person.
Traffic-homicide records show the strongest timing exception. A next-workday expectation that fits an ordinary report does not fit material waiting for State Attorney clearance or court disposition. Ask whether a public portion can be released and whether another office now holds the filed court material. Do not ask staff to bypass the stated hold. Once the court case is resolved, BECA and a certified Clerk copy can establish the disposition, while Titusville Records can address the city report under the applicable release rule.
Titusville requesters should also distinguish inspection from a copy. Florida law may permit inspection of a public record even when producing a large set of copies would create paper, media, or labor costs. Describe the files narrowly and ask Records which format is available. A certified copy costs more because the custodian attests to it, while an ordinary copy may be enough for personal review. When the record will be used to correct one's own history, ask the receiving agency whether it requires certification before paying for it.
The city's county-seat role can make routing seem simpler than it is. Titusville Police and the Brevard Clerk have offices in the same city, but they remain separate custodians. A request delivered to 555 South Washington Avenue reaches the city records function. A court-copy request goes to the Clerk's channels, including the 400 South Street location or the Clerk's email and mail process. Sending the right identifier to the right office prevents a police report number from being mistaken for a court case number.
