Sales Tax reports for March 2010 have been posted.  This includes taxes collected between January 16th to January 31st and esti- mated sales from February 1st to February 15th.

The decline might be there, but it is no worse than projections, actually just a few thousand above, at least according to the projection the mayor provided to the police department (funny they didn't use those numbers last month because that reflected a increase FROM projected, I understand revenues are down significantly from last year).  If the Mayor's office tries to say how bad things are going, I might explode, they are right on projections.

I took a picture of the document from my computer screen if someone will tell me how to upload it, I will.  The projected revenue check for March was supposed to be $14,941,000 . . . .
