Are State sales and gasoline taxes affected by annexation?
Yes. The governmental jurisdiction in which the sale takes place is the recipient of sales tax revenue. Upon annexation, a store or gas station in an unincorporated area of the County will have its tax revenue allocated to the City rather than to the County, unless the City and County enter an agreement that states otherwise. Where you shop, rather than where you live, determines who gets your sales and gasoline tax money. Annexation does not affect the amount of sales and gasoline taxes that you pay.
