Revenue generated in 2016 is expected to be up around \u00a54.1 billion on the previous year. Corporate tax has gone down, but an increase in the city&#8217;s population has meant a rise in the number of people paying tax. This, coupled with real estate (fixed asset) tax, has been behind the overall increase in revenue. <strong>Source:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tvq.co.jp\/news\/news.php?did=19214\" target=\"_blank\">TVQ Kyushu Broadcasting website<\/a>, 8\/1\/2017<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/fukuoka-city-hall.jpg?resize=1400%2C935\" alt=\"\" width=\"1400\" height=\"935\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-101464\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/fukuoka-city-hall.jpg?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/fukuoka-city-hall.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/fukuoka-city-hall.jpg?resize=768%2C513&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/fukuoka-city-hall.jpg?resize=1024%2C684&amp;ssl=1 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><br \/>\nPhoto provided by the City of Fukuoka<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em><strong>Disclaimer<\/strong>: Fukuoka Now posts summaries of Kyushu area related news for the benefit of those who cannot read Japanese.
