Audit Finding Reference: 2022-002 Corrective Action Taken or Planned: 1. Formalized Record Retention Policies: A formal record retention policy specific to federal grant programs will be implemented to ensure full compliance with 2 CFR 200.334. This policy will apply regardless of whether documentation is stored internally or by third-party systems. Any documentation downloaded or transferred from third-party systems will be subject to a review process to verify completeness and accuracy before being finalized for County retention. The County shall also take steps to ensure that information downloads and exports from third-party systems represent omplete and accurate records. 2. Audit Timing Advocacy and Preparedness: The County will continue to maintain timely documentation and preparedness for audits and will also advocate for timely initiation and completion of future audits. Significant delays in the audit process, through no fault of the County, as observed during the FY2022 audit, substantially impacted the County's ability to access necessary documentation and demonstrate compliance. Although the County made every effort to retain records in accordance with federal requirements, the timing of the audit fieldwork occurred well after the program had concluded in May 2023. Had the audit been conducted in a timely manner, full access to the third-party platform used for program administration would have been available, along with all supporting documentation. However, by the time the audit took place, the program had been closed for over 18 months, and access to the external software system had lapsed in accordance with the expiration of the service agreement. 3. Internal Audit Readiness Reviews: Beginning with FY2025, the County will conduct internal audit readiness reviews shortly after fiscal year-end to ensure all documentation for closed federal programs is centralized, archived, and accessible for future audit purposes, even if conducted years later. Anticipated Completion Date: October 15, 2025 Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Charles Nickerson, Senior Director of Finance

Condition: The Authority did not maintain complete and accurate accounts and other records in accordance with HUD compliance requirements regarding Activities Allowed or Unallowed, Allowable Costs/Cost Principles, Eligibility, Reporting, and Special Tests and Provisions. Context: The Authority was unable to provide requested documentation at the time of audit to properly test the HUD compliance requirements. Known Questioned Costs: Unknown Cause: There is a material weakness in internal controls over compliance related to the maintenance of tenant files, wait lists, inspection reports and other records. The Authority has not properly considered, designed, implemented, maintained and monitored a system of internal controls that reasonably assures the program is in compliance. Effect: The Housing Voucher Cluster, Public and Indian Housing Program and Public Housing Capital fund Program are in material non- compliance with the compliance requirements of the program. Recommendation: We recommend that the Authority implement a process whereby Authority documents are stored and safeguarded to ensure compliance with the Uniform Guidance and the compliance supplement. View of Responsible Officials and Corrective Actions: The Authority experienced significant turnover in employees during the year and as a result certain source documents were misplaced or destroyed. Management agrees with the Auditors' finding and has hired a new Executive Director who will implement the required safeguards and ensure that the Authority follows its internal control over compliance processes and procedures related to the Housing Voucher Cluster, Public and Indian Housing Program and Public Housing Capital fund Program to remedy the aforementioned deficiencies.
