Finding 2023-001 Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Federal Program Titles: Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers & Mainstream Vouchers Assistance Listing Number: 14.871 & 14.879 Noncompliance – N. Special Tests and Provisions – Housing Quality Standards Non Compliance Material to the Financial Statements: Yes Material Weakness in Internal Control over Compliance for Special Tests and Provisions Criteria: Housing Quality Standards Inspections. The PHA must inspect the unit leased to a family at least annually to determine if the unit meets the Housing Quality Standards (HQS) and the PHA must conduct quality control re-inspections. The PHA must prepare a unit inspection report (24 CFR sections 982.158(d) and 982.405(b)). For units that fail inspection the PHA must correct all life threatening HQS deficiencies within 24 hours and all other deficiencies within 30 days. Condition: Based upon inspection of the Authority’s files and on discussions with management, the Authority did not properly abate four (4) out of twenty-six (26) annual failed inspections selected for testing. Context: The Authority did not properly abate four (4) out of twenty-six (26) failed inspections selected for testing. As a result, the Authority was not in compliance with the HQS as required by 24 CFR sections 982.158(d) and 982.405(b). Our sample size is statistically valid. Known Questioned Costs: $12,804 Cause: There is a material weakness in internal controls over the compliance for the special tests and provisions type of compliance related to HQS inspections. The Authority has not properly considered, designed, implemented, maintained and monitored a system of internal controls that assures the program is in compliance with Notice PIH 2021-14(HA). Effect: The Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers and Mainstream Vouchers Programs are in material non-compliance with the with the special tests and provisions type of compliance related to HQS inspections. Recommendation: We recommend the Authority design and implement internal control procedures that will reasonably assure compliance with the Uniform Guidance and the compliance supplement. Views of responsible officials and planned corrective action: The Authority accepts the recommendation of the auditor and has made arrangements to comply with the compliance requirements of the Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers and Mainstream Vouchers Programs. Jeremy White, HCV Director, will be responsible to implement this corrective action by March 31, 2024.
