Notes to SEFA
The County passes-through certain federal assistance received from the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services to other governments or not-for-profit agencies (subrecipients). As a pass-through entity, the County has certain compliance requirements, such as monitoring its subrecipients to help assure they use subawards as authorized by laws, regulations, and the provisions of contracts or grant agreements, and that subrecipients achieve the award’s performance goals. As described in Note A, the County records expenditures of Federal awards to sub-recipients when paid in cash.
The County commingles cash receipts from the U.S. Department of Agriculture with similar State grants. When reporting expenditures on this Schedule, the County assumes it expends federal monies first.
The County reports commodities consumed on the Schedule at entitlement value. The County allocated donated food commodities to the respective program that benefitted from the use of those donated food commodities.
Certain Federal programs require the County to contribute non-Federal funds (matching funds) to support the Federally-funded programs. The County has met its matching requirements. The Schedule does not include the expenditure of non-Federal matching funds.
During fiscal year 2024, the County made allowable transfers of $866,934 from the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) (AL #93.558) program to the Social Services Block Grant (SSBG) (AL #93.667) program. The Schedule shows the Entity spent approximately $3,181,428 on the TANF program. The amount reported for the TANF program on the Schedule excludes the amount transferred to the SSBG program.
