TAXABLE SALES
Taxable retail sales jumped 10% from the first quarter of 1989 to second quarter ’89. These most recent figures available also indicate total taxable sales increased by the same amount.
In retail sales, all the cities except Cypress and Los Alamitos scored increases. For total taxable sales, Cypress, Tustin and Villa Park all recorded declines and La Palma was virtually flat. All other cities registered gains.
Here’s how 1989 retail and total taxable sales changed from the first to second quarter in the cities followed by a comparison of Orange and the contiguous counties; county totals include funds allocated to county governments; amounts are in thousands of dollars:
