| Q: | What/Who is the Legal Data Resources Corporation? |
| A: |
The Legal Data Resources Corporation (LDRC) is a non-profit corporation that provides tax and assessment data to its members via the CityTax website. LDRC users are typically law offices, real estate agents and financial institutions that require tax and assessment information to perform services for their clients.
Since November 1992, the City and LDRC have entered into a number of agreements which allow LDRC users access to the City’s Electronic Tax Roll database on a fee for service basis. These contractual arrangements require LDRC to administer all financial, technical support and educational issues between them and their subscribers. LDRC offsets the costs associated with providing such services by adding a surcharge to the City’s fee for service.
