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.

Finding 2022-004 Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Federal Program Titles: Housing Voucher Cluster, Public and Indian Housing Program, Public Housing Capital Fund Program, and Coronavirus Relief Fund Assistance Listing Numbers: 14.871, 14.879, 14.850, 14.872, and 21.019 Material Noncompliance Non Compliance Material to the Financial Statements: Yes Material Weakness in Internal Control over Compliance Criteria: The Authority must maintain complete and accurate accounts and other records for the program in accordance with HUD compliance requirements. 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. Byran McClellan, CFO, will be responsible to implement this corrective action by December 31, 2023.

The District concurs with the finding. Because the District was not aware at the time the purchases were made, the District would be required to comply with uniform guidance procurement rules for the funds received, suspension and debarment verification procedures were not performed or documented for those transactions. To address this issue, the District will implement procedures requiring verification of vendor suspension and debarment status for applicable federally funded transactions, using an appropriate source such as SAM.gov. The District will also require documentation of the review performed and retention of that documentation in the applicable procurement or vendor file, along with supervisory review to help ensure the control is performed consistently.
