Melbourne Phone Directory

The Melbourne phone directory covers city government offices, the City Clerk, police contacts, and public service departments in Brevard County. Melbourne has about 88,000 residents and is one of the largest cities on Florida's Space Coast. You can search for phone numbers, office contacts, and public records through the city's online tools and direct phone lines. This page explains how to find the right contact in the Melbourne phone directory, request records from city departments, and reach the offices you need. All Melbourne phone numbers use the 321 area code, and all government contacts are public records under Chapter 119 of the Florida Statutes.

Melbourne City Clerk and Public Records

The Melbourne City Clerk's office is the central hub for public records requests. The clerk manages official city documents, council meeting minutes, resolutions, and ordinances. All departments route their records through the clerk for public access. If you need a city record, start here.

Melbourne City Hall is at 900 E. Strawbridge Avenue, Melbourne, FL 32901. The main city phone number is (321) 727-2900. The City Clerk's office can be reached through the main line or through the city's website at melbourneflorida.org. The website includes a staff directory with direct phone numbers and email addresses for individual employees and departments.

Under Florida law, you have the right to request any record held by the city. You do not need to live in Melbourne. You do not need to explain why you want the record. The city must respond within a reasonable time. Standard fees for copies follow state guidelines. Complex requests that take significant staff time may come with additional charges. The City Clerk can tell you upfront what a request will cost before they process it.

Melbourne Police Department Phone Numbers

The Melbourne Police Department handles law enforcement records separate from the City Clerk. The non-emergency number is (321) 723-3636. For emergencies, dial 911. Police records have their own request process.

To get a copy of a police report, contact the records division with the date, location, and case number if you have it. Most police records in Florida are public under Chapter 119, but records tied to active investigations or certain personal information may be exempt. Accident reports and arrest reports are the most common requests. The department can tell you what fees apply for copies.

Melbourne PD also works with the Brevard County Sheriff's Office. If your case involved the sheriff rather than Melbourne police, you need to contact BSO. Check which agency responded to your incident before calling. This distinction matters because the records sit with the agency that handled the case, not the city where it happened.

Melbourne Department Phone Directory

Melbourne has several city departments with their own direct lines. The main switchboard at (321) 727-2900 can connect you to any department. Here are the key numbers in the Melbourne phone directory:

The Building Department at (321) 674-5710 handles permits, inspections, and building records. Need permit history or building plans for a Melbourne property? This is the number. Public Works at (321) 674-5717 covers utilities, roads, and infrastructure records. Both fall under the same public records rules as every other city department.

Fire Department Administration at (321) 674-5741 handles non-emergency fire department records. Fire incident reports and inspection records go through this office. If you are not sure which department to call, start with the main line. Staff will route you to the right place.

Florida State Phone Directory for Melbourne

Florida runs a statewide phone directory at 411.myflorida.gov that covers state agencies with offices in or near Melbourne. This includes state offices throughout Brevard County and the Space Coast region. You can search by agency name, employee, or location.

State agencies follow the same public records rules as cities and counties. Under Chapter 119, you can request records from any state office. The Florida State Information Center at 1-866-693-6748 or 850-488-1234 can route you to the right state agency. This is useful when you need a contact for a state office that serves Melbourne but is not listed in the city phone directory.

For professional licensing records, the state keeps a directory at dos.fl.gov. This covers licensed professionals across the state, including those in Melbourne and Brevard County. It is a separate resource from the city and county phone directories.

Online Records Search Tools

Beyond phone calls, you can search for Melbourne-area records through online databases. The Florida public records check page provides links to search tools that cover records across the state.

These online tools handle basic lookups without a phone call. Court records, property records, and many other document types are searchable online. For records held specifically by the City of Melbourne, you may still need to call or submit a written request. County and state records are often available through online search portals. The Brevard County Clerk of Courts runs an online system for court cases and recorded documents that covers all cities in the county, including Melbourne.

Brevard County and Melbourne Records

Melbourne is part of Brevard County. Many records are held at the county level. Court records, property records, marriage licenses, and official recorded documents go through the Brevard County Clerk of Courts. The Brevard County phone directory page on this site has all the contacts for county-level records.

The county clerk runs online search tools for court cases and recorded documents. Search by name, case number, or document type. These tools cover all cities in Brevard County. For city-level records like council minutes, city ordinances, or department contacts, use the Melbourne phone directory numbers listed here. City and county are separate governments with separate offices. If a record went through a court, it is almost always a county record. If it came from a city department, it belongs to the city. Understanding this split will save you from getting transferred back and forth.
