Notes to SEFA

The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards (the Schedule) includes the federal award activity of the City of Greenwood, Indiana (the City). The information in the Schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations, Part 200 Uniform Administration Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). 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 position/fund balance, or cash flows of the City. In addition, some amounts presented in the Schedule may differ from amounts presented in, or used in the preparation of, the basic financial statements. Expenditures reported on the Schedule are reported on the cash basis of accounting. Such expenditures are recognized following the cost principles contained in the Uniform Guidance or federal award guidance when such cost principles are not applicable to the specific federal award. Under the cost principles contained in the Uniform Guidance and federal award guidance, certain types of expenditures are not allowed or are limited as to reimbursement. When federal awards are received on a reimbursement basis, the federal awards are considered expended when the reimbursement is received. When federal awards are received through advanced funding, the federal awards are considered expended when disbursements occur. Subrecipients: The City provided no funds to subrecipients in 2025.
The City has elected not to use the de minimis indirect cost rate as allowed and defined under the Uniform Guidance.

Finding Details

Subject: 2025-002 Material Weakness and Noncompliance – Procurement and Suspension and Debarment Federal Agency: Department of the Treasury Federal Program: Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds Assistance Listing Number: 21.027 Compliance Requirement: Procurement and Suspension and Debarment Audit Finding: Material Weakness and Noncompliance – Procurement and Suspension and Debarment Criteria: In accordance with 2 CFR §200.214 and 2 CFR Part 180, the City is required to ensure that it does not enter into a covered transaction with a party that is suspended or debarred. Verification must be performed through one of the following: checking SAM.gov, collecting a certification, or adding a contract clause requiring compliance. Condition and Context: The City has a formalized procedure for verifying suspension and debarment status for covered transactions under the revenue loss category for the CSLFRF award but the verification process did not occur prior to payment of new vendors during 2025. All vendors paid through June 2025 were verified on June 26, 2025 and all vendors paid through December 31, 2025 were verified on January 26, 2026. Without advance verification, the City risks using federal funds to engage with ineligible vendors, which could result in questioned costs, repayment obligations to the federal government, or future audit findings that may impact continued federal funding. Cause and Effect: The City did not complete suspension and debarment verification prior to payment for each of the ten covered transactions tested, resulting in a material weakness of internal control over compliance and noncompliance with respect to the suspension and debarment requirements of the CSLFRF program and increased risk of using federal funds with ineligible vendors. This is a repeat finding of 2024-002. Recommendation: We recommend the City ensure suspension and debarment checks are performed on all CSLFRF transactions prior to payment to new vendors and documented appropriately. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: The City agrees with the recommendation and plans to implement a corrective action plan by December 31, 2026. City staff are in the process of updating internal policies to ensure the suspension and debarment checks are performed on all CSLFRF transactions prior to payment to vendors and documented appropriately.
