Tax Revenue from 2020 to 2021
When COVID-19 disrupted global, national and local economies in 2020, many believed local sales tax revenues
would plummet from reduced consumer activities such as shopping and eating out. However, Florence County did
not experience the same level of reduction as some other areas. The Capital Project Sales Tax revenues from 2020
to 2021 actually show a robust growth. Early engagement with the business community indicated that Florence
County residents came together to support local businesses during the pandemic, and many businesses were able
to access various funding supports.
