Notes to SEFA

The financial reporting entity, as defined by Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB), consists of the primary government, which is the City of Pomona (City), organizations for which the primary government is financially accountable, and other organizations for which the nature and significance of their relationship with the primary government are such that exclusion would cause the reporting entity’s financial statements to be misleading or incomplete. The Schedule of Expenditure of Federal Awards (the Schedule) includes expenditures of federal awards for the City and its component units as disclosed in the notes to the Basic Financial Statements.
Funds received under the various grant programs have been recorded within the general, special revenue, and capital projects funds of the City. The City utilizes the modified accrual basis of accounting for the general, special revenue, and capital projects funds. Expenditures of federal awards reported on the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (Schedule) are recognized when incurred.
The accompanying Schedule presents the activity of all federal financial assistance programs of the City. Federal financial assistance received directly from federal agencies as well as federal financial assistance passed through the State of California is included in the Schedule. The Schedule was prepared only from the accounts of various grant programs and, therefore, does not present the financial position or results of operations of the City.
When federal awards were received from a pass-through entity, the Schedule shows, if available, the identifying number assigned by the pass-through entity. When no identifying number is shown, the City determined that no identifying number is assigned for the program, or the City was unable to obtain an identifying number from the pass-through entity.
The City did not elect to use the 10% de minimis indirect cost rate.
Loans outstanding at the beginning of the year and loans made during the year are included in the federal expenditures presented in the accompanying schedule. The balance of loans outstanding with compliance requirements at June 30, 2025, consists of:

Finding Details

Finding SA2025-001 (Significant Deficiency) Grantor: U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Program Name: Moving to Work Demonstration Assistance Listing No: 14.881 Criteria: Program participants are required to submit audited financial reporting, including the FDS when applicable, in accordance with established deadlines and reporting requirements. Timely submission is necessary to demonstrate compliance with program reporting obligations and to support effective monitoring and oversight. Condition: The City did not submit the audited Financial Data Schedule (FDS) report for fiscal year 2024 within the required reporting deadline for HUD program 14.881. The audited FDS for FY2024 was due 3/31/2025 but was not submitted until 7/22/2025. Cause: The audited FDS submission was delayed due to the delayed completion of the City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR), which affected the timing of the City’s audit reporting and related submission process. Effect: Failure to submit the audited FDS timely constitutes noncompliance with program reporting requirements and may impair HUD’s ability to monitor the City’s financial condition and program compliance. Recommendation: Management should establish timelines and interim milestones for completion of the City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) that support timely completion and submission of the City’s audited FDS by the 3/31 deadline. Management's Responses:: The City concurs with the importance of timely reporting and compliance. Both FY2024 and FY2025 have reporting delays due to staffing turnover and due to the implementation of new accounting software replacing legacy software that was over 30 years old. The implementation process consumed more time than the City anticipated thus delaying timely reporting. The City expects FY2026 to show significant improvement.
