Findings

3 findings.

Every finding is verified to the documents in its own row. An inference is labelled as one.

Red with the marker: a certified figure the books contradict.

01

The FY2025 report certifies one program, Community Outreach, at 3,120.48 expended (p3).

It names the Lumberton Township Police Department as the recipient (p2) and gives the primary category as Harm Reduction and Overdose Prevention and the Schedule B strategy as Treat Opioid Use Disorder (p5). It describes the program as distributing treatment referrals, recovery program information and harm reduction tools such as naloxone (p3). It reports 50 participants, 8 encounters and 12 referrals to treatment (p4). The books show every payment from account G-02-05-707-000 between 07/01/2024 and 06/30/2025. Amazon purchase order 24-01153, check 1012, 1,429.04 for fanny packs, socks, coloring books, bubble wands, razors, soap, hand sanitizer, nail clippers, hats, scarves, gloves, backpacks and stuffed bears. Wawa catering and hoagie boxes on purchase orders 24-01173 and 25-00360, 607.65 net of discounts. Foremost Promotions water bottles and shipping on purchase order 24-01219, 364.00 net of a discount. McDonald's cheeseburgers on purchase order 25-00362, 150.00. Soft pretzels on purchase orders 24-01218 and 25-00274, 47.00. Police overtime charged on the 10/24/2024 payroll, 522.79. They total 3,120.48, the certified figure to the cent. No payment buys naloxone, treatment, counseling or a referral service. The FY2026 update carries the same program at 11,434.09 (p4), again the account's spending to the cent. It is the same kinds of purchases plus a 7,605.51 payment to the Lumberton Emergency Squad described only as OPIOD REIMBURSEMENT.

02

The FY2025 report certifies Community Outreach at 3,120.48 expended under Harm Reduction and Overdose Prevention, Schedule B strategy Treat Opioid Use Disorder (pp3, 5).

The FY2026 update certifies the same program at 11,434.09 (p4). Inside those certified figures the books show 2,919.65 of event food, promotional bottles and children's toys. FY2025 holds 1,355.59 of it. Wawa catering and hoagie boxes 607.65 net of discounts, purchase orders 24-01173 and 25-00360. McDonald's cheeseburgers 150.00, purchase order 25-00362.

The FY2026 report certifies 79,323.83 of unspent and uncommitted funds currently on hand (p2).

The same report certifies 95,360.62 received since 2022 (p1). The Township's four reports certify 0.00 spent in FY2023 and FY2024, 3,120.48 in FY2025 and 11,434.09 in FY2026, 14,554.57 in all. Received less spent is 80,806.05. The certified 79,323.83 is instead the balance of budget account G-02-05-707-000 after check 1105 paid the Lumberton Emergency Squad 7,605.51 on 06/04/2026. The account's appropriations total 93,878.40, adopted as 9,493.19 on 04/20/2023, 15,573.99 on 04/04/2024, 48,710.04 on 05/01/2025 and 20,101.18 on 05/07/2026. The report's own program update gives 93,878.40 as the amount available (p4). 93,878.40 less 14,554.57 is 79,323.83. The two results cannot both be the money on hand. They differ by 1,482.22, which is the received figure less the appropriations, 95,360.62 less 93,878.40. The audit trail printed 09/01/2026 shows the account balance falling to 78,689.67 when a 634.16 Amazon order opened on 08/31/2026, before the report's last update on 09/09/2026. The records do not show whether the received figure or the on-hand figure is the one that is wrong.
