The District acknowledges the finding regarding noncompliance with federal wage rate requirements under the Davis-Bacon Act for a federally funded construction project. At the time, the District was unaware of the $2,000 threshold triggering these requirements and did not include the necessary wage rate provisions in the contract or collect certified payroll reports. To address this, the District is: • Updating procurement and contracting procedures to include Davis-Bacon Act requirements • Providing staff training on federal wage rate compliance • Implementing procedures to ensure proper contract language and weekly certified payroll collection • Establishing monitoring processes to verify ongoing compliance These actions will strengthen internal controls and ensure adherence to all applicable federal requirements moving forward.

In response to this finding, the Culinary Services department under the guidance of the Operations team in SPS has made the following adjustments and changes to business practices: 1.

Corrective Action Plan Finding: Finding 2024-002-Internal Controls Inadequate for Disbursements-Allowable Costs Condition: Good internal controls should be in place to make sure that disbursements are for eligible payments, are correctly classified, and are timely paid.

Item 2024‐001 – Special Tests and Provisions – Wage Rate Requirements (Repeat) Recommendation: 2 CFR 200.303 requires the non-Federal entity to “(a) establish and maintain effective internal controls over the Federal award that provides reasonable assurance that the non- Federal entity is managing the Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal award.” 2 CFR 200.326 and 29 CFR Part 5, Labor Standards Provisions Applicable to Contracts Governing Federally Financed and Assisted Construction (DOL Regulations) require the contractor or subcontractor to submit to the nonfederal entity weekly, for each week in which any contract work is performed, a copy of the payroll and a statement of compliance (certified payrolls). We recommend the strengthening of controls to ensure the prevailing wage rate clauses are included in the contracts and that certified payrolls are received for each week in which construction work is performed. The Chief School Financial Officer, Linda Harper, should review documentation for inclusion of the prevailing wage rate clauses in construction contracts as part of the bid process prior to expenditures being made. She should also review all invoices received from contractors and subcontractors to ensure that the certified payroll information is received for all weeks for which construction work is performed. Action Taken: Management has reviewed the requirements of 2 CFR Section 200.303 and 2 CFR 200.326 relating to wage rate requirements and agrees with the recommendation. Management has already communicated with all current contractors and subcontractors regarding the wage rate requirements for contracts in progress and has implemented additional procedures for future projects effective October 1, 2024. These additional procedures include the Chief School Financial Officer (CSFO), Linda Harper, reviewing all proposed construction contracts for inclusion of the prevailing wage rate clause as part of the bid process prior to expenditures being made. The CSFO will also review all invoices received from contractors and subcontractors to ensure that the certified payroll information is received for all weeks for which construction work is performed.

Finding 2024-001 Condition: The federal awards expenditure data compiled by the County to prepare the SEFA was found to be incomplete and inaccurate.

Views of Responsible Officials: Federal grant requests and reporting is the function of three teams: Programs, Development and Finance. Prior to the hiring of the VP-Finance, the Associate Director, Grants Management and Compliance met with the Associate Director, Partnerships on a quarterly basis to discuss required program spend reimbursements and projected program cash needs prior to submitting the formal requests. With the onboarding of the new VP-Finance, internal review processes were changed to incorporate more robust segregation of duties, alignment with the internal cash management policies and procedures and formal review of drawdown requests prior to submission. The VP-Finance became a permanent employee in October 2024 and since then all submissions have obtained the appropriate approval prior to submission.

Views of Responsible Officials: All Astraea staff members are required to complete timesheets. Astraea’s internal processes were reviewed and overhauled in December 2021 (midway through FY2022) with department heads determining how their direct reports would spend time on various Astraea work streams and projects. This information is detailed in a level of effort (LOE) spreadsheet tracked against timesheets and budgets regularly. However, the processes for instituting regular updates to the LOE spreadsheet and timesheet allocations remained time-consuming and highly manual in FY2023 – which we believe resulted in misallocations. Astraea is currently reviewing internal processes to ensure, 1) that review and revision of the LOE spreadsheet and timesheet allocations can happen in a timely manner with less administrative burden, and 2) allowance of a more detailed review of the payroll allocation approval and entry process. As of January 1, 2025, a new finance system was implemented allowing for greater sophistication, consistency and automation of these processes. We do not expect to see this finding upon completion of our FY25 audit.

Management Response: The College concurs with the finding and is in the process of implementing a policy when satisfactory academic progress is run, students will be notified via mail or email of their academic standing. Students who are suspended will have an opportunity to appeal their suspension. If the appeal of suspension is approved, students will meet with their academic advisor to be placed on an academic plan. The academic plan must be signed by both the student and advisor. The academic plan must be submitted to the Office of Financial Aid via the teams. A financial aid hold will be placed on the student's account until the signed academic plan is received. Once received, the Office of Financial Aid will remove the hold so the student can be awarded.

Name of Auditee: California Community Foundation (CCF) Audit Period: Grant Award Period: 9/1/2022 – 8/31/2024 Finding Reference #: 2024-002 – Allowable Costs Finding Description: For one of the 28 invoices reviewed, which includes 25 subrecipient invoices and 3 vendor invoices, representing $76,549 of the $439,088 of underlying invoices reviewed, insufficient documentation was maintained to demonstrate management completed the invoice review process as the review and approval of the invoice was not documented. The Foundation had an agreement with its contractor to pay for services performed according to an agreed payment schedule. While the Foundation reviewed payments made to the contractors, it did not review the underlying invoice detailing the work performed for the payment. Corrective Action Planned: The Foundation acknowledges the finding and will implement corrective measures by updating its invoice review procedures to formally record review dates and approvals in compliance with 2 CFR 200.303. Additionally, we will reinforce staff training and supervisory reviews to ensure that all invoice documentation meets federal standards. Periodic internal reviews and audits will be conducted to verify adherence to these enhanced procedures. Anticipated Completion Date: Corrective action will be implemented by April 1, 2025. Responsible Official(s): Jose Najera, Sr. Compliance & Operations Officer (213) 452-6218 – jnajera@calfund.org Management Comments: The Foundation remains committed to maintaining effective internal controls and ensuring compliance with all applicable federal regulations. While our current process includes a review of invoices, the noted documentation lapse will be addressed through improved procedures and enhanced training. These corrective actions will mitigate the risk of unallowable cost charges and ensure consistent compliance with federal procurement standards.
