Local sales tax allocations continue to grow for Texas.
Comptroller Glenn Hegar announced this week that $1.07 billion is being spread around Texas cities, counties, transit systems, and other special purpose taxing districts. That represents a 7.6 percent increase from January 2022.
Sales tax allocations typically reflect sales from two months prior, meaning this January’s allocations are based on sales from November 2022.
Austin is receiving $28,641,135.89 — an increase of 11.32 percent from the $25,727,096.62 it received in the first month of 2022.
