June sales tax reports show the county is faring better than it did in 2019, 2020

 The coronavirus pandemic’s impact on Summit County is still being felt by local businesses, as evidence of supply chain issues and severe labor shortages, but there is a silver lining: All the towns in addition to the county are reporting strong sales tax collections compared to 2019, as well as 2020.

While Breckenridge reported the biggest swing — its sales tax collections are up about 40% when comparing June 2019 and 2021 — Silverthorne seems to be making a particularly strong comeback, especially considering the town’s new developments in the last two years.

According to its June sales tax report, year-to-date sales tax collections amounted to over $7.1 million, and sales tax collections were over $5.8 million in 2019 for the same period. That’s about a 23% increase in two years.
