Sabetha sees increased sales tax distributions

Sabetha’s sales tax distributions are above last year’s distributions for July. This is according to the July County/City Local Sales Tax Distribution Report released by the Kansas Department of Revenue. The state issues these distributions two months after collection, so the July distribution is a reflection of May sales. Sabetha saw increased sales tax distributions in the month of July alone — with distributions of $39,598.14, a 4.7 percent increase from the $37,836.05 distributed in July 2019. Sabetha’s local sales tax rate is 1 percent.
