Sales tax revenue in Erie County is on the rise.
Comptroller David Shenk says revenue was up more than 4-percent in October, compared to one year ago. And for the first ten months of the year, sales tax revenue was up by nearly 9-million dollars over last year. Shenk says while revenues look promising, maintaining revenue growth is a concern.
Sales tax revenue is the single-greatest source of revenue for the county.
