Finding 2022-003: Accuracy of Data Condition During compliance testing, it was identified that expense allocations related to payroll were not adequately supported. Corrective Action Plan Corrective Action Planned: The Agency, effective October 1, 2022, calculates wages to all programs as a percentage. These percentages are used in the development of the budget and shared with the human resources for bi-weekly payroll. Employees paid out of multiple funds are now delineated in a spreadsheet by the Finance Director pursuant to a new standard operating procedure. The Staff Accountant enters the monthly recurring adjustment for wages. If Agency budgets are amended and wages adjusted during the fiscal year, the board in coordination with the Executive Director will notify the Finance Department. The Finance Director will then create a new recurring entry, and any adjustments, for recording for the Staff Accountant.

The Agency is also updating all internal procedures and leadership is being trained to prevent further occurrences.

Finding No. 2022-001 Criteria: 2 CFR 200.303(a) establishes that the auditee must establish and maintain effective internal control over the federal award that provides assurance that the entity is managing the federal award in compliance with federal statutes, regulations, and conditions of the federal award. Condition: The Agency selected option I to calculate lost revenue, which consists of a comparison of actual results during the period of availability to the base calendar year of 2019. For all periods reported in the Agency?s Period 2 submission, the reported patient service revenue amounts were not reduced by bad debts, as required by the terms and conditions of the federal award. Planned Corrective Action: Management will continue to refine processes to more diligently review the lost revenue calculation to ensure such amounts are in accordance with the terms and conditions of the federal award. However, the Agency incurred and reported eligible expenses and lost revenue that had the errors in the lost revenue calculation been identified and corrected prior to reporting, the Agency would have satisfactorily incurred eligible expenses and lost revenue in excess of the PRF funds received, including interest earned on such funds. Planned Completion Date: Ongoing Person Responsible: Nancy Chase, Chief Financial Officer

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY 2022-003: Continuum of Care Program CFDA 14.267 Grant period: Year Ended June 30, 2022 Condition and Context: The Organization does not have a written procurement policy to properly implement all the requirements of 2 CFR Section 200.318 through 200.326 of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Criteria: In accordance with 2 CFR Section 200.319(c), non-federal entities must have written procedures for procurement transactions. Such policy should incorporate all requirements within 2 CFR 200.318 through 200.326 of the Uniform Guidance. Cause: The Organization?s procurement policy does not incorporate all the requirements of 2 CFR Section 200.318 through 200.326 of the Uniform Guidance. Effect: An important component of internal controls is the existence of operating policies and procedures that are clearly understood and communicated. Without clear written policies and procedures, there is a higher risk of noncompliance with program compliance requirements. Recommendation: Management should continue to develop comprehensive written policies and procedures to administer all federal programs. Current written policies should be evaluated for inclusion of and compliance with the Uniform Guidance requirements. Grantee Response: Management agrees with the finding and will adopt written policies to comply with Uniform Guidance requirements.

Findings and Questioned Costs Related to Federal Awards Finding Number: 2022-001 Contact Person: Dr. Shelley Isai, Assistant Superintendent for Education Services Anticipated Completion Date: November 21, 2022 Planned Corrective Action: The District reviewed the procedures used to determine Title I, Part A eligibility in the Grants Management System as well as a process that includes maintaining records.

To complete this process with accuracy, the Director of Federal Projects will communicate the required eligibility criteria to the Director of Nutrition Services. The Nutrition Services department will provide Federal Projects with the necessary information to complete the process. Supporting documentation for the basis of fiscal year 2023 and the future years will be stored in a shared file and readily accessible for reference or audits. This process has been documented to ensure consistency through any department transitions.

Higher Horizons will ensure the segregation of duties in the Fiscal Department at all times to ensure business continuity. The newly developed procedure will address continuing business operations in the event of disasters and other high impact scenarios (i.e. staff transitions, emergency operations, etc.) Higher Horizons will refine and develop systems and fiscal procedures to ensure that when transitions of Finance Department staff occur, that all responsibilities are assigned to another individual. Fiscal operational procedures will reflect personnel assigned for tasks, authorizing responsibility, and approvals. Reconciling of accounts and review of all reconciliations and adjusting journal entries will be completed by someone other than the preparer. Higher Horizons' goal is to provide sufficient internal control over fiscal reporting so all necessary transactions are in accordance to generally accepted accounting principles.
