As City Staff and Elected Officials of the City of Trinidad, we are responsible for ensuring the fiscal health of our community and have taken the legal steps necessary to do so. In November 2020, The City voters approved a district sales and use tax increase of .75% resulting in a tax rate 8.50%. This increase is intended to apply predominantly to purchases made within the city limits. However, as sales tax is often automatically calculated using a person’s residential zip code, there are certain circumstances when the 8.50% rate will be applied to people living outside the city limits but in the 95570 zip code area.
Attached is the complete list of streets within City limits which can be used to determine inside/outside city limit residency for sales tax purposes.
