Citywide sales tax deal trims revenue and hikes county repayment
Jorgensen said the city will collect about 120000 less this year due to a mis calculation and a state demand to return 60000 to the county. The deduction would cut next year's sales tax share by two and a half mills. Countywide adjustments extend to other cities with Wellsville owing around 5000. Council member Samsel supported the compromise pending mayor Lytle’s review.
