The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards (the Schedule) includes the federal award activity of Crawford County Public Facilities Board Number One under programs of the federal government for the year ended December 31, 2022. The information in this Schedule is presented in accordance with the pared in accordance with the requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance).

Finding Details

C. FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS-MAJOR FEDERAL AWARD PROGRAMS AUDIT Department of Housing and Urban Development 2022-001 Special Test and Provisions/Utility Allowance Federal program: Housing Choice Voucher, CFDA No. 14.871 Condition and Criteria: The entity must maintain an up-to-date utility allowance schedule. The PHA must review utility rate data for each utility category each year and adjust its utility allowance schedule if there has been a rate change of 10 percent or more. Certain utility rate categories did appear to have increases in excess of the 10% threshold. A revised utility allowance schedule was not available. Effect: Participant housing assistance payments may not be calculated correctly. Auditor?s Recommendation: The entity should document its annual review of utility rate data and revise its schedule of utility allowances as appropriate. Grantee Response: We gathered utility rates from the various suppliers and forwarded this data to a company specializing in utility allowance studies in early April 2022. The company failed to provide the Agency with revised utility allowances. The Agency followed-up with the company on the utility allowance study in April, June and September. A revised utility allowance was never received. We will ensure a utility study will be completed and utility allowance schedules revised by October 31, 2023.
