NORTH PLATTE, NEB – The City of North Platte has reached a new milestone: the tax’s first million-dollar month. April was the first month of North Platte’s higher 2% city sales tax that helped quickly reach this&nbsp;milestone for the city. Last November, voters approved a ballet to increase sales tax by half a cent to fund improvements to North Platte Rec Center and Cody Pool. The 2% sales tax went into effect on April 1st.&nbsp;

The Nebraska Department of Revenue will return $1,161,747 to the city for April, the department reported Wednesday in releasing that month's local sales and hotel-motel tax figures across the state. Proceeds from the extra half-cent will gradually repay yet-to-be-issued bonds to expand the North Platte Recreation Complex, renovate Cody Pool and relocate and rebuild the city's skate park.&nbsp;
