Local tax liaisons are ALDOR employees fully dedicated to providing assistance to local taxing jurisdictions regarding issues or questions relating to the administration of their local taxes. The local tax liaison also provides information and training on various topics through presentations and briefings to county commission and municipal council meetings, formal classroom instruction, as well as individual training for local elected officials, city and county employees, accountants, attorneys, and taxpayers.

District Local Analysts

In addition to the local tax liaisons, ALDOR maintains a staff of revenue tax accountants/auditors located at the various taxpayer service centers throughout the state who serve as local tax analysts for their respective districts.

In addition to their auditing duties, these examiners work closely with the local governments within their respective districts offering assistance by answering tax questions for taxpayers and city and county officials, providing hands-on training in the use of local tax distribution reports for city and county clerks and officials, as well as providing assistance with changes in tax laws and policies. These examiners are very familiar with their local area and can be valuable resources for local tax officials. The local tax analysts also provide information and training on various topics through presentations and briefings to county commissions and municipal council meetings, formal classroom instruction, as well as individual training for city and county officials and employees, accountants, attorneys and taxpayers.
