DOR and partners pledge implementation help and vendor coordination

Montana League of Cities and Towns · July 23, 2025

Summary

Department of Revenue staff said they are coordinating with tax-software vendors and local field staff to implement classification changes; the League and Mako will post templates and training and will send a follow-up email with slides and the recording.

Presenters acknowledged that some technical elements remain to be finalized and said the Department of Revenue is working with property-tax vendors (Tyler, Black Mountain referenced) and local field staff to implement the classification and rate changes.

Mako and the League said they will publish template resolutions and how-to guidance and will host additional trainings in the fall to help counties and municipalities calculate assessed-dollar conversions and prepare for appeals windows. Attendees were told to expect a follow-up email with slides, the recording and links to the posted templates.

Why it matters: Local software and vendor workflows need configuration to apply new subcategories and rates correctly; coordinated vendor work reduces implementation risk and taxpayer confusion.

Provenance: Vendor coordination and training plans were discussed during Q&A and closing remarks.
