Maximizing revenues for local governments

Maximize Revenues

Municipalities today need to make sure they’re getting every single penny due—from sales and hospitality taxes, business and franchise fees, disaster-relief grants, and beyond. Learn how our proven approach has resulted in significant returns for communities like yours.

• Easy Taxpayer Compliance

  With Azavar’s revenue-management platform Localgov, it’s easier than ever for taxpayers and businesses to take care of taxes and fees. No more coming into the office to write paper checks—just file and submit electronic payments via our secure platform for instant compliance.

• Detailed Compliance Audits

  With staff, time, and dollars stretched to the limit, local governments rarely have the resources or schedule to do a fine-toothed examination of address coding issues associated with taxes and fees. Then, our team goes to work to reclaim back taxes and bring in revenue for years to come. And if we don’t find errors? We don’t get paid.

• Ordinance Drafting & Revision

  Vague legal language in your municipal ordinances may be costing your community big time. Azavar’s experts help you draft and revise legal language that eliminates loopholes and ambiguities—plus we’ll handle staff and taxpayer education.

• Disaster-Relief & COVID Funds

  Whether it’s fires, floods, or pandemics, communities need extra funds to handle emergencies. But grant applications can be time-consuming and difficult. Azavar’s team of experts can do the heavy lifting.

Evolve with Changing Community Needs

Smart civic leaders are nimble, ready to respond to change. But it’s tough to steer the rest of government along with you. Azavar can be your partner in future-proofing your community, regardless of what comes your way, from economic windfalls to global crises.

• Offer Consumer-Style Ease & Security

  Today, your taxpayers expect the same user experience from local government that they enjoy when shopping with online retailers. Offer an easy-to-use, secure way to pay and not only will you delight your constituents—you’ll increase compliance, too.

• Enhance Quality of Life

  When local governments can’t predict budgets accurately, everyone pays the price—especially residents. Now you can offer peace of mind about your community’s financial future. 

• Tackle New Market Developments

  When new market offerings emerge you need to be ready to loop them into your revenue mix. Communities are still catching up with the short-term rental market and entrepreneurs are busy dreaming up something else. Our team stays on top of trends and helps you stay sharp.

• Secure Crisis Funding

  When the worst happens, community leaders need to be ready to fight hard for federal-relief dollars. But making sure you’re managing the grant cycle while delivering on acute needs is difficult. Azavar’s grant writing experts are here to help.
