Posted

Lebanon and Laclede County both showed improved sales tax receipts for the 2021 year.

The receipts appeared to improve after showing the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.

Laclede County Presiding Commissioner Randy Angst said the county general revenue, law enforcement and County Development Tax sales tax receipts were all up slightly, at more than 11 percent over last year.

According to the unaudited figures reported to the County Commission, general revenue brought in $2,791,069 this year so far.
