Although the percentage of tax dedicated to the parks in Jefferson County has not changed for many years, tax amounts collected in Jefferson County have steadily grown as the County has grown year-over-year. 

 

The information on this page is the County Sales Tax numbers reported to Councilmembers over the past several years.  See the steady growth?  The same thing has happened with Park funding.  

​

Claims that the Parks Department funding is stagnant are simply wrong.
