Sales Tax

Overview

The City of Lytle collects a one and one-half-percent (1.5%) sales tax on all taxable items purchased in the city.

The city adopted a one-percent (1%) sales tax back in 1968 when it became available in Texas cities. The additional one-half-percent (.5%) sales tax was voted in back in 1988 for the purpose of reducing the property tax rate.

Sales Tax represents about 27% of the general fund’s revenues.
