Comparison to Missouri State Sales Tax: The State of Missouri is on a July - June fiscal year and reported to date (July 2018 - April 2019), they are 2.2% over the previous year. The City is a calendar year fiscal year, but to compare with the State, July 2018 - April 2019, we were -0.2% compared to State growth.
