- Tax, Finance, & Economic Development Portfolio: The lobbyist covering these policy issues works on matters ranging from property tax, municipal budgeting and audit requirements, tax credit programs, economic incentives, and more. This role also supports revenue reform conversations as guided by the LOC Board of Directors, which includes a public education effort.
