COVID-19 Impacts on the City of Hudson's Finances

Amid the COVID-19 pandemic and with unemployment at an all-time high, the City is carefully monitoring income tax income vs. expenditures to determine the impacts on the City's finances. Income taxes account for approximately 78% of our General Fund budgeted revenue. Our finances are holding steady, due in part to aggressive deferrals of projects and budget reductions earlier in the year. The City continues to monitor finances and has been providing monthly updates to City Council.

2020 Income Tax Revenue

This graph shows the 2020 monthly income tax revenue received by the City as compared to the monthly budgeted amount. Through December collections, the City was $2,714,292 (or 10.7%) ABOVE the budgeted estimate. Earlier in the year, there was uncertainty about collections due to the COVID-19 impact and the income tax filing extension from April 15 to July 15. Because of the filing extension, the City estimated deferred revenue for the months of May, June, and July. Since that time, the City has fully recovered the deferred revenue and collections have significantly exceeded original estimates. This strengthens the City’s overall financial position and will allow for increased infrastructure improvements and improved City services.
