The FY2026 report certifies 1,288.69 spent between 07/01/2025 and 06/30/2026 (p1). It certifies 0.00 spent on administrative expenses and answers N/A when asked for their details (p2). The 2023 Opioid Grant account, 01-213-23-240-010, paid four vendor invoices in that period. L.E.A.D. Inc check 14606 paid 906.68 on 10/28/2025. 4imprint check 15498 paid 15.80 and Staples check 15575 paid 297.21 on 02/18/2026. JCM Associates check 16331 paid 69.00 on 05/19/2026. The four make the certified 1,288.69 to the cent. On 11/05/2025 journal GJ 256, described as "5% Opiod charge off - admin fees," took a further 1,254.23 from the account. The journal debits the opioid account and credits 01-201-20-130-011, a Financial Administration appropriation, and was posted by the chief financial officer. The amount is 5 percent of the 25,084.69 the Township received in FY2023. The account gave up 2,542.92 in the year. The report puts the 1,254.23 in neither the spent figure nor the administrative figure. An administrative charge of 1,254.23 and a certified administrative expense of 0.00 cannot both be true.
