Abstract
![]() GIS for Comprehensive Tax Solutions Track: Business GIS Author(s): Bob Meador, Sridhar Devineni, Srikanth Yadiki Special Purpose Districts (SPDs) are created by state and local agencies for the purpose of funding special items such as Library and Regional Transportation Districts. SPDs play a vital role in implementing "sales and use" tax that is collected in addition to state tax and any other local taxes. Frequent changes in municipal boundaries because of annexations make it difficult for retailers to determine local tax jurisdictions and manage tax issues. With tax jurisdictions constantly changing and new tax jurisdiction assignment requirements mandated by state and local lawmakers, the potential liability resulting from inaccurate tax assignment poses a significant problem. The Esri suit offers a range of flexible functionalities, which can be used to build a comprehensive solution to ensure that current information is available for tax jurisdiction assessment. This paper illustrates a solution that can integrate special tax jurisdictions data with customer records to enhance the tax application performance.
