Staff meets with a representative of HdL on a quarterly basis to review sales tax data & trends within the City & Statewide. NEWSLETTER SUMMARY Receipts for National City's July through September sales were 11.4% higher than the same quarter one year ago. Autos and transportation posted a strong quarter from new and used car sales and leases. In addition, receipts from business and industry were boosted by onetime payments. Lower receipts from service stations partially offset the city's gains. General consumer goods also posted sales declines from family apparel, department stores, and home furnishings; however, the loss was exaggerated by payment anomalies. Onetime adjustments were responsible for temporarily depressing building and construction. Measure "D", the city's voter approved transaction tax generated $2,452,022, an 8.3% increase over the same quarter last year. Adjusted for aberrations, taxable sales for all of San Diego County increased 6.1% over the comparable time period, while Southern California region as a whole was up 5.3%.
