2026 revenue report

At a glance

  • What: the standing monthly revenue summary to the committee.
  • Where it stands (Oct 15): Lauren Crawford, acting treasurer, said revenue is tracking the forecast. Personal property tax bills went out for about 32 million dollars plus 3.7 million dollars of prior-year adjustments, so it should beat its budget target even after the exemption for small businesses was raised.
  • Alcohol and marijuana taxes: alcohol is about 2 percent ahead of its expected pace (reported about two months behind). Marijuana tax looks high (75 percent) mainly because of a 400,000 dollar prior-year expense recovery booked in March, which is not new revenue. Scout asked; marijuana shows no clear seasonality.
  • Caveat: figures come from auto-captions.
