Dear Brown, Justin,
Thank you for the information. Can you please confirm a few details for me please. First, this is for the 2% Sales Tax Revenue from Retail Cannabis Dispensaries in your city, correct? Also, for which company or companies are the records of payment for? Lastly, were these payments supposed to be for quarterly payment or for which time period?
I appreciate your time and assistance on this matter. I look forward to hearing from you and have a great day!
Yours sincerely,
Brad Peters
