Body
DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND
The Treasurer-Tax Collector Department relies on the HdL Software for the issuance and tracking of business licenses, including the licenses of Cannabis-related businesses, Vacation Home Rentals and Hotel/Motels. The HdL Software is also used to remit transient occupancy taxes and Cannabis taxes. Other features allow customers to apply for business licenses and renewals online and to make online payments.
With software features such as records archive capabilities and access for field collections payments and notes, the Department has utilized HdL Software more extensively than originally planned and additional users were added. This contract amendment adds funds for the additional user licenses.
Further, the contact, as executed, expires September 17, 2022. The Amendment will extend the contract to the end of the calendar year like other contracts in the Department.
