Brad,

The Vertex tax package is fun!  The software relies on Geocodes which is
necessary because Zip Codes aren't specific enough to charge the correct
taxes.

For example, we have a store in Colorado that's in a redevelopment zone
which requires us to charge an improvement fee.  The mall the store is in is
straddles the redevelopment zone.  Every store in the mall shares the same
address of the mall (they all have the same address and zip code).  But the
stores aren't all in the same geographic area (redevelopment zone) for this
improvement fee. Some stores in the mall have to charge the fee and some
don't.  Different geocodes are needed.
