Please accept this electronic request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an official form or use a particular software platform to submit my request per NJSA 47:1A-6(f), which states that an email from a requestor including all of the information required on the adopted form shall suffice in place of a completed form as a valid government record request.

I HAVE NOT been convicted of any indictable offense under the laws of New Jersey, any other state, or the United States.

I WILL NOT use the requested government records for a commercial purpose.

I AM NOT seeking records in connection with a legal proceeding.

Records requested:

1. local cannabis transfer tax,
2. cannabis user tax,
3. social responsibility revenue, and
4. any additional sources of local revenue, such as cannabis application fees.

My preferred delivery method for response(s) to this request is by E-mail as attachments. Please confirm you have received this request. If you are not the custodian of records, please forward my request to that person and provide their email address to me for future reference.

Yours faithfully,

Giovanna Romero Sarubbi

There will be responsive documents.
The township charges an application fee for a Resolution of Support (category #4).
I am not sure how easiest to get this data. I will check with Laura or Finance.

Dear Vicki Gough,

Good morning, I would like to clarify the documents that I need. I am looking for the annual retail cannabis-related revenue data for your municipality from 2021-2025, if available. Do you have these documents? Thank you very much for your help!

Yours sincerely,

Giovanna Romero Sarubbi

Vicki Gough, Moorestown Township

Good Afternoon,

In response to your request, "does your municipality get annual revenue from cannabis retailers" and the answer is no such document since we do not have any retailers that have opened as of yet.

Thank you.
