Morgan Hill’s Q2 Sales Tax Update, spanning the months of April-June 2021, has just been released. Here are some high level takeaways-
-Sales tax revenue for the city this quarter was up 30.5%, a number higher than the county but lower than the state.
-Compared to Q2 2020, the Auto/Transportation Industry showed significant growth of more than $225,000 in alignment with the statewide trend of increased auto and RV sales and pricing.
- Restaurant/Hotel and Fuel/Service Industries grew $100,000 each in comparison to Q2 2020, most likely due to the reopening of the economy and the return of commuters to the workplace. Building/Construction numbers also increased mainly due to the rise in steel and lumber prices.
-The Food/Drug Industry numbers stayed flat, as there were minimal disruptions to this industry during the pandemic.
