Comptroller Lierman will meet with staff at the Comptroller’s Salisbury offices and talk with taxpayers seeking assistance with their tax filings. Sue Littleton is the acting manager for the office, and Laura Shriner is the call center manager.
She will then tour three training centers led by Bill Chambers, President and CEO of the Salisbury Area Chamber of Commerce. The stops will include:
