📰 News we're reading

• Sales tax growth continues for some Waco-area cities, others see drops (star-telegram.com) — McGregor’s latest sales tax rebate dropped 35% from last December, and year-to-date collections are running about a quarter behind last year as major industrial construction has paused.
