The FY2025 report certifies 230,792.22 received between 7/1/2024 and 6/30/2025 (p1, question 1).
The Township's Reserve for Opioid Settlement Funds prints eight receipts in that period. Six arrived from 08/06/2024 to 10/16/2024 and total 44,530.24 (2024 revenue audit trail). Two arrived on 04/22/2025 for 4,313.02 and on 06/23/2025 for 15,928.87 (2025 revenue audit trail). Together they are 64,772.13. The certified figure is 166,020.09 higher. 166,020.09 is the cumulative figure the FY2024 report certifies at question 3. The certified 230,792.22 is every receipt since 2022, the balance the same report certifies as on hand at question 9. The report gives the balance as the year's receipts.
misreported-receipts · 4 documents · 10/03/2026The FY2025 report certifies 396,812.31 received since the distribution began in 2022 (p1, question 3).
That is the FY2024 report's cumulative figure, 166,020.09, plus the FY2025 question 1 figure, 230,792.22, which already includes the 166,020.09. The Township's prints record 55,435.50 received in FY2023, the four trust account reimbursements of 46,393.38 and a 9,042.12 receipt on 06/20/2023. They record 110,584.59 received in FY2024 and 64,772.13 in FY2025. That is 230,792.22 through 06/30/2025. The FY2023 and FY2024 reports certify the first two figures to the cent. The certified cumulative figure is 166,020.09 higher than the receipts. The same report certifies 230,792.22 on hand after 0.00 spent (question 9), the true cumulative figure.
misreported-receipts · 7 documents · 10/03/2026The FY2025 report certifies 396,812.31 received since the distribution began in 2022 (p1, question 3).
It certifies 0.00 expended, 0.00 encumbered and 0.00 of administrative expenses for 7/1/2024 to 6/30/2025 (p1, questions 6, 7 and 8). The FY2024 report certifies 0.00 expended and 0.00 encumbered, and the FY2023 report certifies 0.00 expended. With nothing ever spent, the funds on hand equal everything received. The same FY2025 report certifies 230,792.22 on hand (p1, question 9). The two figures differ by 166,020.09 on one page of one report. The Township's prints record 230,792.22 received through 06/30/2025 and no payment out of the settlement money. The on hand figure matches the books. The received figure does not.
