C. 
The municipal transfer taxes provided for in this section shall be remitted to the Chief Financial Officer of the Township on a quarterly basis along with a report certified as true and accurate by the cannabis establishment's Chief Financial Officer, Comptroller, or other similarly situated person showing the gross revenues for the cannabis establishment for each month of the quarter ("Gross Revenue Report"). A copy of the cannabis retailer's ST-SOC form filed with the state shall also be provided. No municipal transfer tax shall be considered remitted unless and until the ST-SOC form and Gross Revenue Report provided herein have been submitted to the Township.
(1) 
The municipal transfer tax shall be paid quarterly on the same dates for the collection of property taxes. The municipal transfer tax due February 1 of each year shall include transfer taxes based on revenues for the prior year months of October, November and December. The municipal transfer tax due May 1 of each year shall include transfer taxes based on revenues for the immediate prior months of January, February, and March.

The lien shall be superior and paramount to the interest in the parcel of any owner, lessee, tenant, mortgagee, or other person, except the lien of municipal taxes, and shall be on a parity with and deemed equal to the municipal lien on the parcel for unpaid property taxes due and owing in the same year. In the event of a delinquency, the Chief Financial Officer shall file with the Tax Collector a statement showing the amount and due date of the unpaid balance and identifying the lot and block number of the parcel of real property that comprises the delinquent cannabis business.
