Recommendation: The design of the current internal controls should be reviewed to ensure tenant files are complete and accurate. The information in the files should support the data used in preparing the Form 50059, and procedures for calculating income using HUD guidelines should be reviewed. The information in the files should also support that proper eligibility screening procedures have been completed, and updated lease agreements should be obtained for any tenant whose lease is not the correct model lease document. A corrected Form 50059 should be prepared to correct the tenant income discrepancy noted in the audit, and the required adjustment processed through the HUD voucher. In addition, management should review all files and report any additional discrepancies to HUD in a timely manner. Action Taken: Day Spring Baxter Avenue, Inc. will review all tenant files and report any discrepancies in calculated tenant rent and rental subsidy to HUD and make the necessary adjustments on the 50059 forms as soon as possible. Tenant files will be reviewed to ensure proper documentation is maintained and the proper model lease is being used.

2025-001 Eligibility – Tenant Files Section 8 Housing Voucher Cluster (Section 8): 14.871 Section 8 – Housing Choice Vouchers 14.879 Mainstream Vouchers Significant Deficiency in Internal Control and Other Matter to be Reported Under the Uniform Guidance Statement of Condition: Out of a total tenant population of approximately 2,025 tenants, a sample of 25 files was selected for testing. Exceptions were noted in 9 of the 25 files, categorized as follows: • 3 tenant file errors where the Authority did not generate the required EIV form. • 1 tenant file had the following errors: o The Authority did not generate the required EIV form. o The child support income was miscalculated and SNAP benefits were included in the income calculation. Correcting the income errors increased the HAP rent from $774 to $869. • 1 tenant file error where the child support income was miscalculated. Correcting the error would decrease the HAP rent from $1,500 to $1,476. • 1 tenant file error where the tenant’s income was miscalculated. Correcting the error would decrease HAP rent from $552 to $279. • 1 tenant file where the tenant’s income was miscalculated. Correcting the issue would increase the HAP rent from $501 to $517. • 1 tenant file error where medical expenses were erroneously reported on the HUD-50058 form. Correcting the error would decrease the HAP rent from $524 to $500. • 1 tenant file error where the utility allowance was miscalculated. Correcting this error would increase the HAP rent from $1,027 to $1,145. Recommendation: The Authority should correct the deficiencies noted in the tested files and utilize an ongoing, secondary quality control review process for a sample of the entire tenant population to ensure proper compliance with eligibility requirements. Furthermore, management should provide ongoing staff training, conduct timely reviews of tenant files, and evaluate current staffing levels, skill sets and caseloads to ensure staff have the capacity to execute their duties accurately. Action Taken: The Authority concurs with this finding and has implemented a robust file review process, enhanced quality control procedures, and provided training on errors noted along with annual program training for all staff. The cited files were corrected.

Program: Housing Voucher Cluster Federal Financial Assistance Listing Number: 14.871 / 14.879 Federal Grantor: U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Award No. and Year: Multiple Compliance Requirements: Special Tests and Provisions – HQS Enforcement Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control Over Compliance and Instance of Noncompliance Criteria: The 2025 OMB Compliance Supplement requires that for dwellings under Housing Assistance Payment (HAP) contracts that fail a Housing Quality Standards (HQS) inspection, the County must enforce HQS requirements. Specifically, upon notification that a unit has failed HQS, the County must inspect the unit within 15 days to confirm the deficiency and notify the owner if the deficiency is confirmed. Once notified, the owner is required to make the necessary repairs within the prescribed time frame. If the owner does not correct the cited HQS deficiencies within the specified correction period, the County must stop (abate) HAPs beginning no later than the first of the month following the specified correction period or must terminate the HAP contract. Condition: For one sample selected for testing, the County did not timely enforce HQS requirements. Cause: The cause of the finding was an administrative oversight that resulted in delays in issuing the final inspection notice following a missed inspection appointment. The County’s existing procedures did not adequately ensure timely follow-up and escalation when an inspection resulted in a noshow. Effect: Because the required inspection and notification were not completed timely, the County did not fully comply with the HQS enforcement requirements. This delay increased the risk that housing assistance payments could continue for a unit that did not meet HUD’s minimum housing quality standards, potentially affecting program compliance and participant health and safety. Questioned Costs: No questioned costs were identified as a result of our procedures. Context/Sampling: A nonstatistical sample of sixty (60) out of a total population of 1,029 instances of failed HQS were selected. The condition noted above was identified during our procedures related to special tests and provisions – HQS enforcement. Repeat Finding from Prior Years: No. Recommendation: We recommend the County strengthen its HQS enforcement procedures by implementing controls to ensure timely follow-up on failed inspections, including missed appointments. Such controls may include automated tracking of inspection deadlines, supervisory review of no-show appointments, and escalation procedures to ensure owners are notified within required time frames. Management Response and Corrective Action Plan: 1. Person Responsible: Linda Tarzjani, Leasing Manager 2. Corrective action plan: Concur. We will strengthen our HQS enforcement procedures by implementing controls to ensure timely follow-up on failed inspections, including missed appointments. In doing so we will consider automated tracking of inspection deadlines, supervisory review of noshow appointments, and escalation procedures to ensure owners are notified within required time frames. 3. Anticipated Implementation date: February 1, 2026
