These internal controls should be in compliance with guidance in “Standards for Internal Control in the Federal Government” issued by the Comptroller General of the United States and the “Internal Control Integrated Framework”, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).” 2 CFR 200.403(g) states that costs must “Be adequately documented.” Condition: During our testing of activities allowed or unallowed, for 4 of the 60 nonpayroll items tested, management could not provide adequate support that the charges were properly reviewed and approved prior to payment. Questioned Costs: Unknown Context: Total federal expenditures for the WIOA Cluster were $1,377,447 for the year ended June 30, 2024. Cause: The Board did not demonstrate that proper internal controls are in place and operating effectively to ensure that unallowable charges to the federal program do not occur. Effect: Unallowable payments to the federal program may have occurred due to the lack of effective internal controls in place. Recommendation: We recommend that the Board design and implement controls to ensure that all charges to federal programs are adequately reviewed and approved prior to payment. Views of Responsible Officials: We agree with the finding and will take the necessary corrective actions as noted in the corrective action plan attached.

Effect: The Board is not in compliance with the federal statutes, regulations, and terms and conditions of the federal award. Recommendation: We recommend that the Board implement its recently adopted policies and procedures and commit the appropriate personnel to subrecipient monitoring to ensure that the Board is in compliance with all federal requirements. Views of Responsible Officials: We agree with the finding and will take the necessary corrective actions as noted in the corrective action plan attached.
