Who this typically touches

Business types a matter in this class typically reaches. Our inference from the class, not the record's words; a specific organization is named on these pages only when the record itself names it.

Likely to gain: billing, payments and tax software vendors (fee schedule and collection changes are decided in public well before a procurement appears); assessing and revaluation firms (a revaluation is a contracted engagement with a visible start).

Likely affected: large property owners and their tax counsel (rate and assessment changes land on the next bill).
