Sales tax revenues for Clarendon slipped in November when Texas Comptroller Glenn Hegar delivered monthly allocations last week.
Clarendon’s revenue of $52,736.12 this month was down from $61,362.03 one year ago at this time. The city is still ahead for the calendar year-to-date, up 1.07 percent at $473,040.17.
Hedley was up considerably at $4,358.95 compared to $1,697.73 last November. Hedley is now up 42.08 percent for the year at $17,225.33
In Howardwick, sales tax revenues were up 8.45 percent to $2,097.38, but the lakeside city is behind for the year, down 5.69 percent at $19,373.26, largely due to lowering its sales tax rate in the fall of 2023.
Statewide, Hegar delivered $1.2 billion in local sales tax allocations for November, 1.1 percent more than in November 2023.
These allocations are based on sales made in September by businesses that report tax monthly and on sales made in July, August and September by quarterly filers.
