               in February 2017 to 2.69% and continued to decline until it bottomed out in November 2017 with a
               negative growth factor of -1.6%.  It then began an extended recovery, eventually peaking in June
               2019 at  6.29%  growth.   Unfortunately, the  COVID-19  pandemic  which became widespread in
               March 2020 began another prolonged decline falling to -4.2% in September 2020 and eventually
               bottoming out at  -15% in April 2021.  As the  economy  reopened throughout FY21, sales tax
               growth climbed from historic lows reaching -2.4% by September 2021.
