Joplin Sees Higher Tax Receipts in January

The Joplin Globe is reporting that sales tax receipts in Joplin were up in January.  Compared to January 2008, Joplin saw an increase of $13,000 with payments totaling just under $1.17 million.  Year-to-date, Jopin’s tax revenues are still down almost $96,000 from compared to last year.

Neosho’s sales tax revenues for the year are down from last last year.  If I had January’s numbers, I’d comment on them as well.
