Greetings from Mayor Kenneth Edwards.
Again this year, you will see all around you what sales tax collections can do and how dependant we are upon those dollars for the progress we are making. The Mayor's Community Improvements Committee is working on a program that you have been reading about to encourage our citizens to spend their money in Greenwood. It's good for business, it's good for the business owners who are your friends and neighbors and it's good for your city improvements. When you visit our parks, walk along the new trails, drive on improved streets, visit the recycle center or appreciate the better quality of water we are drinking, remember that the sales taxes on your local purchases pay for much of that. Sales tax collections in Greenwood are up over last year and that trend will need to continue in order to fund the many projects that we have to report to you in this edition of the Quarterly Newsletter.
