U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT: CDBG ? Entitlement Grants Cluster (14.218) Material weakness- 2022-027 Compliance with Allowable Activity and Allowable Cost See Compliance Finding 2022-022. 2022-022 Compliance with Allowable Activity and Allowable Cost Recommendation: The Government should review its internal control policies and procedures over allowable costs and activities to ensure payments meet both requirements before being approved as a charge to the grant Corrective Action Plan: The home identified in this finding received major rehabilitation work under the HOME grant in 2012. This included flooring installation but the Government failed to install a moisture barrier. As such, the external moisture caused the wooden sub-floor to deteriorate slowly over a 10 year period which posed a serious threat to the health and safety of the homeowner. Although per the contract the homeowner had one year to identify issues, it was determined that the homeowner has no reasonable way of identifying the error made by the Government which caused this issue. In order to circumvent the eminent danger to the homeowner as a result of the Government?s error, it was decided that the original warranty would be honored. As per HUD regulations, CDBG may be used for minor rehabilitation (which the replacement of the floor qualifies as), and was used in this instance. In order to ensure the one year contractual language does not preclude the Government from correcting errors made, the policy and procedures of the Housing Rehabilitation Program have been updated. The following language has been added ? All work done under the auspices of the Housing Rehab Program (RHP) is guaranteed against faulty installation and/or material for one year after the home is confirmed to meet or exceed the standards of the International Property Maintenance Code (IPMC). Following the one year guarantee, should LCG have substantially failed to meet the standards of the IPMC, resulting in extreme Health and Safety issues for the homeowner, the Housing Rehabilitation Program staff, at its discretion, may review homeowner eligibility for additional repair of the faulty work in order to meet Health and Safety requirements and to fulfill its good-faith obligation to the homeowner. The homeowner must continue to meet HUD income and eligibility requirements. This finding is not expected to reoccur.

Share's Director of Finance, Christopher Brox will provide training to accounting staff responsible for expense entry, expense review and approval, and invoicing by June 30, 2023 that include the following topics: - Allowability of expenses based on both contract criteria and the period of performance. - key identifiers that could flag an exception in allowability based on period of performance, and how to catch this in the review of expenses. - General ledger transactions that require further review for period of performance allowability during monthly review of expenses prior to preparing invoices. This training will highlight this being a specific area of focus for review during periods when a contract terms and a new contract starts. This training will happen with all new accounting staff responsible for expense entry and review and will be incorporated as refresher trainings if contract and grant administrator expense reviews identify this as being a continued issue by staff performing expense data entry.

The public safety officials include Police Chief Adam Yates, Fire Chief Bernie Vahlkamp, and 9-1-1 Director Jessica Douglas. These directors do agree with the finding that the daily sign-in sheets do not always get the supervisor?s written approval. However, they do believe the supervisor in each case is aware of the documented time, even though it is not a written approval. These City officials all agree that each daily time sheet should have a supervisor?s approval prior to the hours being submitted for payroll entry. The City Comptroller has issued a memo that directs the administrative person responsible for time entry to look for any missing approvals on sign-in sheets, time cards, or on daily rosters. The Police Chief, Fire Chief, and 9-1-1 Director will also be reviewing compliance on this. Lastly, the Comptroller?s staff position of Accountant/Payroll Manager (currently vacant) has the responsibility of auditing time cards; this position can also verify that time cards have appropriate supervisor approval.
