Notes to SEFA

The accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (the "Schedule") includes the federal award activity of the City of Brookport, Illinois under programs of the federal government for the year ended April 30, 2025. The information in this 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 (UniformGuidance). Because the Schedule presents only a selected portion of the operations of the City, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position, changes in net assets, or cash flows of the City of Brookport, Illinois.
The Schedule is presented in accordance with the Uniform Guidance, which defines federal financial assistance "…assistance that non-federal entities receive or administer in the form of grants, loans, loan guarantees, property (including donated surplus property), cooperative agreements, interest subsidies, insurance, food commodities, direct appropriations, and other assistance, but does not include amounts received as reimbursement for services rendered to individuals."
The Schedule is presented on the modified cash basis of accounting, which recognizes expenditures only when paid for goods and services. This is the same basis of accounting presented in the finnacial statements.
The City's grant programs involve reimbursement of the City's actual cost of administering the programs, and therefore, the City is not reimbursed for indirect costs and does not apply any indirect cost rate.

Finding Details

Federal Program: U.S. Department of Agriculture: Water and Waste Disposal Systems for Rural Communities (10.760). Criteria: Per Title 2 CFR 200.512(d), "the data collection form must be submitted within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor's report, or nine months after the end of the audit period. Condition: The City did not file their Data Collection form for 2024 on time. Cause: The City's April 30, 2024 audit was not completed until August 15, 2025 resulting in the data collection form being filed September 3, 2025. This was the result of changing accounting software and timeliness of audit requests. Effect: The District is not in compliance with Single Audit Act of 1984 and Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200. Questioned Costs: None. Context: The report was filed as soon as the audit of the financial statements was complete, but this was after the reporting deadline. Repeat Finding: No. Recommendation: We recommend that all required filings be submitted timely according to the Single Audit Act of 1984 and Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations guidelines. Views of Responsible Officials: We agree with the finding and the Data Collection form will be filed in a timely manner.
