Sales taxes for the City of Clinton are up and it's thanks to a new law in effect that taxes sales on the world wide web.

At the Monday night Clinton City Council meeting, Commissioner of Finance Tom Edmunds told the Council the online sales tax is benefiting the City to the tune of nearly $30,000 better than last year at this time.

The Monday meeting was roughly ten minutes. Clinton Police Chief Ben Lowers thanked those on snow routes in the community for complying with the request of authorities that vehicles parked on the road of those streets be moved. He noted the City is not issuing citations, but like in the case of many other city ordinances, they are simply asking for voluntary compliance.

Commissioner Ken Buchanan applauded City crews for the job they've done during the two snow events of February and a smaller snow event is forecasted for later this week.

The Council Monday night put on file a resolution to use American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds into capital improvements as well as an ordinance amending the gaming license fees.
