Referendums
Shaping the future with expert referendum guidance
DCCM provides sales tax referendum consulting services to help Georgia local governments successfully plan, develop, and implement Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST), Flexible Local Option Sales Tax (FLOST), and Transportation Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (TSPLOST) programs. As creative problem solvers and fellow stewards of the public trust, we have collaborated daily with local government partners across Georgia for nearly six decades, supporting hundreds of communities through every phase of the referendum process. We have built an unparalleled reputation in Georgia’s sales tax referendum arena, earning the trust of municipalities and counties through our hands-on, service-oriented approach that prioritizes long-term relationships and measurable results.
Our deep understanding of Georgia communities stems from decades of continuous operation and our commitment to being integral parts of the project teams we serve. With team members including former county and city managers who understand local government operations from the inside, we bring unique insight that allows us to see both sides of complex issues, anticipate potential challenges, and respond swiftly to emerging needs. This perspective, combined with our extensive experience serving both public and private sector clients, gives us valuable foresight to help communities navigate the intricate political, financial, and logistical aspects of sales tax referendum campaigns.
