Texas Comptroller Glenn Hegar announced this week he will send cities, counties, transit systems, and special purpose taxing districts a total of $992.9 million in local sales tax allocations for January, which is 26.8 percent more than in January 2021. These allocations are based on sales made in November by businesses that report tax monthly.
For the City of Austin, that allocation will be to the tune of $25,727,096.62, representing a jump of nearly 35 percent from January 2021.
