The one-cent sales tax to pay for the Stockton City Swimming Pool began on January 1st, 2017, with the new pool opening that summer on Tuesday, July 25th. It was figured that the generated tax increase would be between $13,500.00 to $14,500.00 a month, and would more than cover the bond payments for the pool. Since that time the sales tax has been steady in keeping with the numbers to cover the payments. The 2019 monthly average was $13,870.55, with a total of $166,446.55 sales tax generated, and the 2020 monthly average as of July 31st, 2020 is $15,128.37, with a total generated at this time of $105,898.61.
