Questioned Costs: None Context: In a population of 4, we selected 3 reports to test. We noted that 2 reports were not prepared and submitted by the due date. Cause: The City does not have the controls in place to ensure reports are being prepared and submitted. Effect: The City is in not in compliance with Uniform Guidance. Repeat Finding: No Recommendation: The City should implement procedures to ensure all required reports are prepared and submitted by their due dates.
