Kyle collects highest sales tax payment ever: Most Hays County cities see large May revenue jumps

By Andy Sevilla

Kyle received more than half-a-million dollars in sales tax revenue this month, the highest allocation ever received by the city. 

“We have expectations of sales tax growth, and when those numbers are blown away it’s just incredible,” said outgoing Kyle Mayor Lucy Johnson, who has seen sales tax collections more than double since first taking office as a council member in 2008.
