City finance staff report September totals; sales tax shows modest increase year-over-year
Summary
Finance staff reported general fund revenues and shared revenues near expected year-to-date percentages, an uptick in sales tax receipts compared with the previous year, HEERF grant inflows and ongoing water/sewer delinquency monitoring.
Finance Director Jacqueline Andrade and Deputy Jean Moham presented the City of Nogaless September 2025 financial report at the Nov. 5 council meeting, showing general fund revenues and shared revenues roughly in line with expected year-to-date percentages and a modest year-over-year increase in sales tax receipts.
Andrade said the general fund had collected $7,296,830 (25% of budgeted annual revenue through September) and that shared revenues were collected at 24% year to date. Deputy Jean Moham said the city received $1,414,647 in sales tax for September, a gain of $120,394 compared with the same period last year, returning sales-tax receipts to positive year-over-year growth after recent months of shortfalls.
Staff also reported HEERF and overweight-fee receipts, details on sewer, water and sanitation fund activity, and a large one-time state grant deposit that appears as grant revenue in the financial reports. Moham said that accounts in Valle Verde account for a substantial portion of outstanding delinquencies and that legal collection efforts will be updated after new bills are run.
Council members asked about timing of deposits and the effects of month-to-month posting (for example, receipts processed in August but deposited in September), and staff explained the presentation follows the dates deposits hit the city bank account rather than transaction dates.
