Management agrees with the finding and will begin an independent review of each tenant file to include examination of proof of disability paperwork to determine if there are any discrepancies and take corrective measures. Leasing office staff will undergo additional HUD 811 training regarding the initial and recertification process. Additionally, management is staffing the property with a dedicated property manager that will be responsible for reviewing tenant files for compliance with HUD procedures including eligibility requirements and ensure supporting documentation is maintained in each tenant’s file prior to signing new or amended leases. Management has requested proof of disability from the tenant that satisfies HUD guidelines and will not renew lease if it is not received. The training and file review will be completed by November 30, 2023. If the tenant does not produce proof of disability their lease will not be renewed on May 11, 2024.

The Board has reviewed the issue and determined that there are no additional procedures which can be reasonably done to eliminate the deficiencies and accepts them.

Freestore Foodbank Inc. and Affiliates require all individuals receiving food to complete an eligibility form prior to receiving food. Condition: We noted one instance (in a sample of 40 clients) in which an eligibility form was not obtained prior to client receiving food. Planned Corrective Action: Management will perform periodic audits of eligibility forms starting 10/15/2023 to ensure compliance. Management will retrain staff to ensure completeness of the intake process. Furthermore, by 9/30/2023, management will work with the developers of the database to see if controls can be implemented in the software, so food cannot be distributed before the signing of the required form.

Corrective Action Plan Finding: Finding 2022-002-Low Rent Tenant File Deficiencies-Eligibility Condition: We reviewed 25 files, 7 of which were audit year move-ins, and 18 were annual re-examinations. We noted the following exceptions: (a)-We were unable to find any annual inspections for the 18 re-examinations. We did note them for 6 of the 7 move-ins. (b)-We were unable to find the required annual review of the utility allowances. The January 27, 2020 Minutes discuss utility allowances and approve new ones. However, the minutes do not reflect for which period the new allowances covered. In addition, there was no documented analysis of whether utility rates had increased beyond the level which required revision, and whether the allowances changed or instead were a holdover from the old rates. (c)-We were unable to view the waiting list, and thus could not review whether the 7 move-ins reached the top of the list. (d)-5 required Enterprise Income Verifications (EIV) were not present in the proper time frame for the 25 files reviewed. (e)-Of the 25 tenant files we reviewed, non were timely re-examined within the required one year period. (f)-We were unable to review documentation of the review of flat rents. Corrective Action Planned As noted previously, we were not the management during this audit period. Our initial Cooperative Agreement was executed November 14, 2023. We believe we have corrected the noted deficiencies.

HOMECorp will make use of Yardi Breeze Premier Affordable Property Management CRM feature which allows both HOMECorp and our tenants to track their program compliance, maintenance requests, leases, lease renewals and annual recertifications. This information will be saved/stored in the cloud. This was implemented on 05/01/23 through coordination of the Yardi Implementation Team and the executive director. During 2021 – 2022, HOMECorp’s management team was significantly impacted by COVID and despite PPP loan retention efforts we lost all our staff and transitioned our HUD Certified Housing Counselor to Property Manager. During this time, the executive Director left as well as two (2) interim Executive Directors, who responsibilities were general management. They lacked the training and experience in Affordable Housing Management to help our property manager to maintain our program compliance procedures. Since the new Executive Director, onboarded in April 2023, the property manager has been trained on our policy and procedure for verifying tenant eligibility and calculating rent amounts in compliance with HOME program requirements, tenant intake, income verification, and rent calculations to ensure compliance with federal regulations. This is done in Yardi Affordable compliance worksheet. Quarterly periodic reviews and audits of tenant files and rent schedules are performed to ensure ongoing compliance.

Finding: Under this selected program, eligible individuals receive a sliding fee discount on amounts owed for health center services based on family size and income levels in comparison to the federal poverty guidelines. The Organization should maintain records providing evidence that the patients included under this program are eligible. During the compliance testing of 44 sample items, there was two instances where the Organization applied a sliding fee discount to a patient who had not submitted any documents regarding their income level or family size and we could not determine whether the patient should have been included as a sliding fee patient, and one instance where the patient had properly submitted their forms, but the Organization applied the incorrect sliding fee rate. Currently, there is no known monetary impact, improper expenditure of funds or questioned costs identified. However, if the Organization does not strengthen the internal controls in regard to the eligibility determination process, there is a possible effect on the ability of the Organization to obtain additional funding under this program if ineligible patients are being treated with grant funding. Views of responsible officials and planned corrective actions: Management agrees with the recommendation to review policies, procedures and practices in place over the controls related to obtaining, retaining and reviewing proof of income support for patients. • Train relevant staff on the Sliding Fee eligibility process and supporting documentation requirements. Anticipated date of completion: December 31, 2025 Contact person responsible – Tammy Grinnan, Controller and Margaret Boemmel, CFO

Views of responsible officials: Before the approval of budget and the contract petition, the Chief Financial Officer will verify if the vendors are excluded as an authorized Federal contractor. The Company will establish a formal procedure to ensure that all vendors for federal funds are verified against the excluded list at least once a year. This verification process will ensure compliance with federal regulations and avoid engaging with vendors who may be suspended or debarred. Additionally, this procedure will be recommended to be included in the review process for quotes or bidding requirements, further enhancing the Company’s ability to comply with federal regulations and maintain responsible vendor relationships.
