The information in the Schedule is presented 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 (the “Uniform Guidance”). Because the Schedule presents only a selected portion of the operations of the Town, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position, changes in net position, or cash flows of the Town. Expenditures reported in the Schedule are reported on the same basis of accounting as the financial statements. Such expenditures are recognized following the cost principles contained in Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards, wherein certain types of expenditures are not allowable or are limited as to reimbursement. The pass through entity identifying numbers are presented where available. The Town has elected to use the 10 percent de minimis indirect cost rate to recover indirect costs as allowed under the Uniform Guidance. De Minimis Rate Used: Y Rate Explanation: The Town has elected to use the 10 percent de minimis indirect cost rate to recover indirect costs as allowed under the Uniform Guidance.

Assistance Listing, Federal Agency, and Program Name ALN 21.027, Department of Treasury, COVID 19 Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds ALN 20.205, Department of Transportation, Highway Planning and Construction Federal Award Identification Number and Year ALN 21.027: 1505 0271, 2022 ALN 20.205: 24455, 2021 Pass through Entity ALN 21.027: Not applicable ALN 20.205: Colorado Department of Transportation Finding Type Material weakness and material noncompliance with laws and regulations Repeat Finding No Criteria Per 2 CFR 200.214, nonfederal entities are subject to the nonprocurement debarment and suspension regulations implementing Executive Orders 12549 and 12689, as well as 2 CFR part 180. The regulations in 2 CFR part 180 restrict making federal awards, subawards, and contracts with certain parties that are debarred, suspended, or otherwise excluded from receiving or participating in federal awards. Nonfederal entities may satisfy the criteria prescribed by 2 CFR part 180 by either checking SAM.gov exclusions, collecting a certification or adding a clause or condition to the covered transaction with the contracted party. Condition The Town could not provide evidence that it performed a check to verify its contractors were not suspended or debarred. Questioned Costs None Identification of How Questioned Costs Were Computed Not applicable Context The Town used each of its grants to procure services from one contractor and was unable to provide evidence that the check for suspension and debarment was completed prior to entering into its contracts, respectively. Plante & Moran, PLLC reviewed the SAM.gov website, noting that the two vendors were not listed as suspended or disbarred. Cause and Effect The Town did not retain evidence to support that it had conducted the search for whether the contractors were suspended or debarred prior to entering into the contracts. The lack of control could result in the Town entering into contracts with contractors that are suspended or debarred. Subsequently, the Town did complete the search on SAM.gov and retained evidence to support that the contractors were not suspended of debarred, thereby creating no questioned costs. Recommendation We recommend the Town implement its controls as designed by retaining supporting documentation to support that contractors are not suspended or debarred. Views of Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan - The Town acknowledges the finding. The oversight was unintentional and occurred due to a lack of formalized procedures for verifying suspension and debarment status for all applicable federal contracts and subawards.
