Sales and Use Tax

The State of Texas imposes a state sales tax of 6.25% on all retail sales, leases and rental of most goods, as well as certain taxable services. Texas cities, counties, transit authorities and special purpose districts have the option of imposing an additional local sales tax for a combined state and local tax rate of up to 8.25%.

On May 10, 2014, voters approved a 1% sales tax to help fund the Magnolia Volunteer Fire Department. Both the City of Magnolia and the Westwood Magnolia Parkway Improvement District impose a sales tax of 2.0%, bringing those areas to the maximum rate of 8.25%. Therefore, the ESD’s 1% sales tax is assessed to non-exempt purchases within the Montgomery County ESD #10 boundaries, but excluding areas within the boundaries of the City of Magnolia and the Westwood Magnolia Parkway Improvement District.

The 1% sales tax went into effect on October 1, 2014. The ESD estimates that the sales tax will provide approximately $2,500,000 to the District in 2015.
