Finding Reference Number: 2024‐001 Description of Finding: There were 72 audit adjustments and closing entries posted during the audit to report the Town’s financial statements in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). The large number of adjustments identified during the course of the audit indicates that the Town does not have internal controls in place to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. Areas where accounts and transactions were not adequately reconciled and evaluated for proper recording prior to the start of the audit fieldwork and areas that require improvement included in the following: - Procedures to ensure beginning fund balance/net position roll-forward to prior year audited financial statements. - Procedures for ensuring revenue received in advance of qualifying expenditures are properly deferred. - Procedures to ensure retentions payable are properly accrued. - Procedures to ensure accounts payable are properly accrued. - Procedures to ensure compensated absences and payroll accruals are prepared accurately and on a timely basis. - Procedures to ensure that pension and other post-retirement entries are calculated and prepared accurately. - Procedures for tracking grant expenditures to ensure revenue is accrued to the extent of reimbursable expenditures incurred and evaluation of proper accounting treatment of transactions as earned, unearned, or unavailable revenue. - Procedures to ensure capital outlay is properly reconciled to capital asset additions. - Procedures to ensure all loans issued by the Town are properly recorded in the general ledger. Corrective Action: The audit period occurred during a significant organizational transition. Much of the Finance team was newly hired, and the department was operating without full historical knowledge of certain complex, multi-year projects. During this same period, the Town was implementing a new account structure and adapting to revised financial coding practices, changes that naturally created temporary gaps in continuity and processing. These combined circumstances contributed to delays in reconciliations, and a higher number of audit adjustments. As staff continue to gain experience, workflows are stabilizing, and historical project information is aligning within the new structure, we expect these issues to diminish significantly. To accelerate this progress, the Town is actively seeking additional consultants to support staff training, provide technical guidance, and assist with strengthening financial reporting procedures. This investment will help ensure internal controls are reinforced and future financial statements are prepared accurately and timely, with fewer adjustments required during the audit process. Name of Contact Person: Aimee Beleu, Finance Director, (530) 872-6291, abeleu@townofparadise.com Projected Completion Date: March 1, 2026

Finding 2024-001 Federal Agency Name: Department of Health and Human Services Program Name: Block Grants for Prevention and Treatment of Substance Abuse Federal Financial Assistance Listing Number: 93.959 Finding Summary: The Organization must establish and maintain effective internal controls over federal awards that provides assurance that the organization is managing the federal award in compliance with federal statutes, regulation, and conditions of the federal award.

Finding 2024-214: The Department does not have documented internal controls for cash draws and requested reimbursement for the same $175,500 grant expenditure twice. Related to Prior Finding: N/A Agency’s view: Agree Corrective Action Plan: DEQ has had significant turnover in the fiscal office, which has resulted in gaps of knowledge of policies and practices. In summer 2025, DEQ leadership reorganized the fiscal department to improve efficiency, enhance oversight of grants and contracts, and strengthen financial controls. The fiscal office is currently in a rebuilding phase and is dedicated to training and developing staff, implementing best practices, and documenting processes and procedures, including those for federal grant compliance. The duplicate payment in question was issued but not redeemed. The issuance was to a similar, but incorrect, vendor name and was caught by staff before it was sent to the vendor. The transaction was cancelled in Luma but was not properly recorded in the following draw request. Fiscal staff now perform a thorough review of transactions before a loan draw is finalized in Luma, reconciling the transactions from the Loans and Grants Tracking System (LGTS) to the information generated in the Luma draw invoice. The reconciling and supporting documentation from LGTS is attached to the Luma draw invoice. Anticipated Corrective Action Date: January 31, 2026 Responsible for Corrective Action: Linda Brown, Financial Executive Officer, at 208-373-0292 or linda.brown@deq.idaho.gov

Ineffective Grant Management Recommendation: Establish a standardized process for reviewing grant budgets against actual expenditures, with clearly defined roles and timelines. Deliver targeted training to relevant staff on grant reporting protocols and variance analysis. Implement a cross-functional review procedure prior to report submission to ensure accuracy and completeness. Action Taken: Since migrating to the new accounting software in February of 2025, CMJTS program managers have better access to reporting for their budgets. Budgets are also loaded into the system by month, and program managers are then able to track program to date expenses versus the what had been planned. Additionally, CMJTS accounting staff has moved to ‘real-time accounting’, meaning that all transactions are being recorded right away in order to flow through to program manager reports. Additionally, the CMJTS Finance Manager meets with program managers on a monthly basis to review budgets and provide additional training. These additional steps empower the program managers to take ownership of their budgets and be able to make more informed decisions on running their programs.

TCJFS will pull in vouchers to the CFIS system from the ledger system that TCJFS anticipates being paid by the Auditor’s Office. TCJFS will then run a cost allocation with the most current RMS numbers and then use the Over/Under Report to determine the draw amount. Draws should be taken from those allocations where expenses have hit or from an allocation where we are under-drawn. TCJFS should never have more than 10 days cash on hand at the end of a quarter.
