ANNAPOLIS, MD (May 21, 2007) - Comptroller Peter Franchot today launched a public survey for users of his agency's Web site. The Comptroller is looking for feedback on www.marylandtaxes.com to improve usability.

"My office is very interested in providing the most effective communication possible to both individual and professional taxpayers," said Comptroller Franchot. "Our Web site is a valuable one-stop shop of Maryland tax information and I want to be sure it is serving the needs of all users."

The survey, only 13 questions, focuses on the organization of information, along with soliciting ideas for improvements in appearance and services. The survey will be available for users until June 15.
