Five cities finish ahead of 2014 sales tax figures
Submitted by Canton1 on
Sales tax revenue incomes for the month of December may not have been kind for most of Van Zandt County, but the late slide was not enough to derail what proved to be a strong year of gains for five out of six cities.
The city of Van lifted the heaviest load among county cities in the month of December according to information released by the office of Texas State Comptroller Glenn Hegar. Van sales tax revenues climbed a county best $20,638.09 when comparing monthly figures for December
2015 with those posted in December 2014.
Edom, which lagged behind its previous year’s pace throughout much of the early part of the year, continued its renaissance during the month of December by collecting $1,266.68, up $211.65 over the $1,055.03 collected for the same month last year.
On the other end of the spectrum, the cities of Wills Point, Grand Saline, Canton and Edgewood all posted negative dollar changes for the month.
