2022-005 Special Tests and Provisions: Public Housing New Admissions and Waiting List Public and Indian Housing Program ? CFDA Number 14.850 Material Weakness in Internal Control, Material Noncompliance Repeat Finding from June 30, 2021 reported as Finding 2021-003 Condition: New Admissions: ...
2022-005 Special Tests and Provisions: Public Housing New Admissions and Waiting List Public and Indian Housing Program ? CFDA Number 14.850 Material Weakness in Internal Control, Material Noncompliance Repeat Finding from June 30, 2021 reported as Finding 2021-003 Condition: New Admissions: We selected 5 new admissions (out of a population of 13) and noted the following: ? We are unable to test if the 5 new admissions were properly selected from the waiting list. Normally we are able to verify by checking where the applicant was on the wait list prior to selection and comparing the waiting list ranking (for date/time applied and preferences) to the application submitted. However, the Authority was not able to provide the applications from which would show the date and time they applied as well as any preferences selected so we were unable to determine if the new admissions were properly selected from the waiting list. Waiting list: We selected 25 applicants on the current waiting list (out of approximately of 700 applicants) and noted the following: ? We were unable to test the 25 applicants selected for testing. The Authority was unable to provide the application for each person on the waiting list and therefore we were unable to determine if the waiting list is ranked properly. As discussed with personnel, all active applications are received electronically (when the waiting list is open). The families create the application entering information such as family members, family income and family expenses. However, the on-line system appears to be flawed as it does not provide fields to indicate preferences (such as for being homeless or living locally) which if entered, would give the applicant points so they could be ranked higher on the waiting list and therefore selected faster. Once the applicant is selected to be housed, the Authority manually applies the applicable preferences (but at that point the Authority may have selected someone on the waiting list that should have been selected earlier and defeats the purpose of having preferences). The Authority has addressed this issue with Yardi and has sent notices to all active applicants asking them to update their preferences which the Authority will manually apply and generate the waiting list and the process is expected to be finalized before March 31, 2023. As a result of the above, applicants may not be ranked properly on the waiting list and applicants may be selected out of order. Auditor?s Recommendation: The Authority should review procedures and increase training to employees and reviewers to ensure that the Authority is in compliance with HUD rules for new admissions and waiting list maintenance. In addition, the Authority should implement a review procedure to make sure that all tenants are admitted in the proper order with proper supporting documentation. In addition, the Authority should continue to investigate the issues with the waiting list software. Action Taken: The Authority transitioned its waiting list to Yardi in March 2020. All HCV staff were trained on the use of Yardi?s Wait List module and subsequently trained on wait list administration such as eligibility, preferences, selection, and file processing. Considering the recent audit findings, the following actions items will be implemented in the specified time frame: ? The Authority has fully implemented the use of an electronic system to maintain the waitlist activity. The Yardi system inherently, with proper usage, provides a more thorough approach to waitlist maintenance. The errors noted were data entry errors not a system flaw. As such, a 100% QC will be conducted by the Senior Property Manager for each existing applicant. Task will be completed on or before April 30, 2023. ? The Authority will review all applicants and assign the correct preference status for each. Task will be completed on or before May 15, 2023. ? The site based waiting list will be merged into a centralized wait list and will be managed by the Occupancy Specialists and overseen by the Senior Property Manager. Waitlist merge will be completed on or before May 15, 2023. ? Provide additional hands-on training for staff on the proper wait list procedures and protocol. Hands-on training will include the use of Yardi?s wait list module as well as HUDs rules on wait list administration coupled with the guidance outlined in the Administrative Plan. Task will be completed on or before May 31, 2023. ? Implement a 100% quality control review of all applicant files. Task will be completed by an outside specialized compliance consulting company. The consulting company will report initial findings to the Authority and deficiencies will be cured before the final completion of leasing activities. Thereby reducing any additional findings with waiting list. Task will begin March 1, 2023 and will continue for one year. ? Repeated noted errors will be reported to the Senior Property Manager and additional hand?s-on training will be completed as necessary. ? Standard Operating Procedures on waitlist management will be developed and implemented. All staff will receive training on the procedures and will be expected to adhere to the protocol and will be made accountable for such work. Effective Date: March 21, 2023 Contact Information Charles Woodyard, Executive Director/CEO Housing Authority of the City of Daytona Beach, Florida 211 N.

2022-004 Eligibility: Public Housing Tenant Files Public and Indian Housing Program ? CFDA Number 14.850 Material Weakness in Internal Control, Material Noncompliance Repeat Finding from June 30, 2021 reported as Finding 2021-002 Condition: Out of a total tenant population of approximately 300 tenant files, 25 files were selected for testing (but stopped testing after 18 files due to the volume of errors). Exceptions were noted as follows: ? 1 tenant file where the Authority was unable to locate and therefore could not test items such as Form 9986, personal declaration form, birth certificates, social security cards, income and deduction support, and EIV verification. The Authority indicated it was recreating the file. ? 2 tenant files with missing 214 affidavits. ? 1 tenant file where the 214 affidavit was not signed. ? 5 tenant files where the personal declaration form was not in the file. ? 1 tenant file where the Form 9886 was not in the file. ? 1 tenant file where the Form 9886 was signed approximately 3 months after the recertification date. ? 4 tenant files with income issues which may have changed the tenant rent amount: o 1 file where there was no support for the family contribution listed on the 50058. o 1 file where there was no support for the child support listed on the 50058. o 2 files where general assistance income (food stamps) was listed as income on the 50058 but should have been excluded. ? 4 tenant files with deduction issues which may have changed the tenant rent amount: o 1 file where the utility allowance of $91 was not on the 50058. This was corrected subsequently on an interim certification. o 1 file where the ?Disclosure of Information? form listed weekly child care expenses, but no child care expenses were deducted on the 50058 and there was no documentation or support in the file explaining if the child care expenses were deductible. o 1 file where the ?Recertification Summary? form listed weekly medical expenses, but no medical expenses were deducted on the 50058 and there was no documentation or support in the file explaining if the medical expenses were deductible. o 1 tenant file where the prior year utility allowance of $82 was used instead of the current utility allowance of $90. ? 1 file where the tenant is paying a flat rent of $686. However, the flat rent appears to be the amount from the previous year and it doesn?t appear that a current flat rent study was conducted or approved. ? 1 file where the dependent date of birth listed on the 50058 did not agree to the birth certificate. ? 2 files where the birth certificates were missing. ? 2 files where the social security cards were missing. ? 1 file where the EIV was not in the file. Auditor?s Recommendation: The Authority should correct the deficiencies noted in the tested files and utilize an ongoing quality control review process on the entire tenant population to ensure proper compliance with the requirements related to tenant eligibility. Ongoing staff training and timely management reviews should be utilized to ensure staff is aware of acceptable procedures. In addition, the Authority should review staffing levels, skill sets and case load. Action Taken: As was also instituted for HCV participant files, the Authority has instituted a checklist sheet that will occupy the front interior of all tenant files. This checklist will contain every document that is required to be placed in the tenant file. The Authority has and will affirm the use of its procedures, and continue to implement procedures to ensure all tenant files are maintained in accordance with policies and procedures. Additionally: ? All noted deficiencies will be corrected and cured on or before March 31, 2023. ? The Authority has also taken steps to stabilize staff by hiring a Property Manager and an Occupancy Specialist that will support the Public Housing Department. ? The Authority has implemented a 100% quality control review of all participant files. Task will be completed by an outside specialized compliance consulting company. The consulting company will report initial findings to the Authority and deficiencies will be cured before the final completion of certification. Thereby reducing any additional findings with tenant files. Task began February 1, 2023, and will continue for one year. ? Repeated noted errors will be reported to the Senior Property Manager and additional hand?s-on training regarding deficient items will be completed as necessary

2022-003 Special Tests and Provisions: HCV Failed Inspections Section 8 Housing Voucher Cluster (Section 8): Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers Program ? CFDA Number 14.871 Mainstream Vouchers ? CFDA Number 14.879 Material Weakness in Internal Control, Material Noncompliance Condition: Out of a total failed inspection population of approximately 540 units, 25 failed inspections were selected for testing. Exceptions were noted as follows: ? 1 Inspection and HAP abatement error where the tenant?s unit did not pass inspection and HAP payments were not withheld from July 2022 through February 2023. ? 1 HAP abatement error where the Authority pro-rated the HAP payment for August 2022 and abated the HAP payment for September through November 2022, but subsequently, whether due to a user or system error, HAP payments were paid out for the months from September through November 2022. ? 1 HAP abatement error where the Authority pro-rated the HAP payment for January & May 2022 and abated the HAP payment for February through April 2022, but subsequently, whether due to a user or system error, HAP payments were paid out for the months from January through May 2022. ? 1 HAP abatement error where the Authority didn't pro-rate the HAP payment withholding for June & December 2022 nor withhold the HAP payment for the month of July 2022. The Authority properly withheld the HAP payments for the months of August, September, October, and November 2022. Auditor?s Recommendation: The Authority should review procedures and increase training to employees and reviewers to ensure that the Authority is in compliance with HUD rules for HQS inspections. In addition, the Authority should implement a review procedure to make sure that HAP payments are properly abated when required. Action Taken: The Authority has moved to an electronic records management system for the inspections. A third party vendor has been procured to manage this process; such process will be overseen by the Housing Choice Voucher Manager. Additionally, the following action items has been implemented: ? The Authority has access to the vendor database on a 24 hour basis and the vendor also provides the Authority with a daily email of inspection data. Actual inspections will be printed and maintained to assure that greater than 10% of the inspections are readily available for each participant. ? The third-party vendor will perform quality control inspections of each completed inspection and make note of such in the electronic database. ? Warranted and recommended abatements will be entered into the database by the third-party vendor and subsequently monitored by the Housing Choice Voucher Manager ? Contract administration of the third-party vendor?s work will be monitored by the Housing Choice Voucher Manager. ? Training on HUD rules for HQS inspections will be completed on or before April 30, 2023

Exceptions were noted as follows: ? 1 preference point error where the applicant selected the involuntary displacement and homeless preference points on their pre-application, which agrees to the information in Yardi, but doesn?t agree to the generated waiting list. ? 7 preference point errors where the applicants? selected the residency preference points on their pre-applications, which agrees to the information in Yardi, but doesn?t agree to the generated waiting list. As a result of the above, applicants may not be ranked properly on the waiting list and applicants may be selected out of order.

2022-001 Eligibility: HCV Tenant Files Section 8 Housing Voucher Cluster (Section 8): Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers Program ? CFDA Number 14.871 Mainstream Vouchers ? CFDA Number 14.879 Material Weakness in Internal Control, Material Noncompliance Repeat Finding from June 30, 2021 (Finding 2021-001 and originally reported in 2017 as Finding 2017-001) Condition: Out of a total tenant population of approximately 1400 vouchers, 26 files were selected for testing. Exceptions were noted as follows: ? 1 utility allowance error where the utility allowance amount of $288 on the 52667 form was reported on the 50058 form for $298. This had no effect on the HAP rent. ? 2 214 affidavit errors where a member of the tenant?s household did not checkmark the box on their 214 forms indicating that they are either a U.S. citizen or a permanent resident. Based on the birth certificates, the member of the households were a U.S. citizen. ? 1 214 affidavit error where the 214 form was missing for a member of the tenant?s household. ? 1 income error where one of the tenant?s pay check was missing for the tenant?s income calculation. Basing the tenant?s wage income calculation on the support in the tenant file would not have changed the HAP rent. ? 1 HAP contract error where the HAP contract is missing from the tenant file. ? 2 9886 errors where members of the household over the age of 18 did not sign and date the 9886 forms. ? 2 deduction errors where members of two households, who were 18 years of age, received a $480 deduction. Correcting this error caused the HAP rent to decrease by $12 for each tenant. ? 1 lead base paint error where the lessor (landlord) did not sign the form to indicate that the information provided to the tenant is accurate. ? 2 EIV errors where the EIV form was not generated or were missing for the tenant?s annual recertification. ? 1 50058 error where the tenant?s childcare support was coded as unemployment benefits on the 50058. ? 1 tenant file unavailable for review due to Hurricane IAN, but no support could be provided. In addition, we also noted as part of our new admissions testing (21 files tested out of approximately 203 new admissions) the following: ? 1 tenant file unavailable for review due to Hurricane IAN, but no support could be provided. Auditor?s Recommendation: The Authority should correct the deficiencies noted in the tested files and utilize an ongoing quality control review process on the entire tenant population to ensure proper compliance with the requirements related to tenant eligibility. Ongoing staff training and timely management reviews should be utilized to ensure staff is aware of acceptable procedures. In addition, the Authority should review staffing levels, skill sets and case load. Action Taken: The Authority has implemented a 100% quality control review of all participant files. Task will be completed by an outside specialized compliance consulting company. The consulting company will report initial findings to the Authority and deficiencies will be cured before the final completion of certification. Thereby reducing any additional findings with tenant files. Task began February 1, 2023, and will continue for one year.

2022-004 Special Tests and Provisions ? CARES Act Funding Material Weakness / Material Noncompliance The Housing Authority completed modifications to the main office building with CARES Act funding. The Section 8 specialist employees work in the main office building with the administrative staff of the Housing Authority. Prior to COVID, the Section 8 specialists were working in cubicles which were not compliant with the CDC guidelines of distance. CARES Act funding was used to build separate offices and install an air filtration system. The rest of the main office was only modified to stay uniform with the other modifications such as painting and new flooring. The amount of the total project charged to the HCV program was in relation to what improvements were made as well as which employees were occupying the space. Effective July 2022, Section 8 is leasing this section of the main office, which was approved by HUD QAD. This finding has been corrected. The Comptroller, Jennifer Yager, worked with the outside auditors as well as the CFO consultant to resolve the posting errors. Jennifer can be reached at 203-596-2640.

2022-007 Special Tests and Provisions ? Capital Funds for Operating Costs Significant Deficiency / Other Matter Historically, the Housing Authority obligated funds as they became available on a monthly basis, based on the five-year plan approved by HUD.

The Housing Authority will put a process in place to make sure the operating funds are obligated in LOCCs only after a contract is executed and expenses have been incurred. This will be implemented in April 2023. Jennifer can be reached at 203-596-2640.

Current Findings on the Schedule of Findings, Questioned Costs, and Recommendations. 1. Finding 2022-001 U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Supportive Housing for Persons with Disabilities (Section 811) ? CFDA 14.181; Grant period ? Year ended June 30, 2022 a. Comments on the Finding and Each Recommendation. Statement of Condition: Security deposits were not placed into a segregated account. Criteria: The HUD Handbook 4350.3 Occupancy Requirements of Subsidized Multifamily Housing Programs requires that the owner must place security deposits in a segregated, interest bearing-account, the balance of which must at all times be equal to the total amount collected from the eligible family plus any accrued interest. Cause: The Project?s sponsor and management company experienced turnover in their accounting department during the year which caused a shift in assigned duties and responsibilities. During that shift in assigned duties there was a lapse in assigned responsibility for the transfer of security deposits. Effect of Condition: This condition resulted in required deposits not being transferred to a segregated account causing the balance to be unequal to the amount collected from the eligible family. Recommendation: We recommend that the Project?s sponsor verify, on a monthly basis, the required security deposit asset and liability account equal. b. Action(s) Taken or Planned on the Finding 1. The Project?s sponsor is aware of the requirement to move eligible family deposits into a segregated account and are working with new accounting staff to ensure that the proper transfers are completed in the future. 2. In September 2022, the security deposits were transferred to a segregated account equaling the amount collected from the eligible family.

Department of Housing and Urban Development, Kan-Do Apartments, Inc. respectfully submits the following corrective action plan for the year ended December 31, 2022. Name and address of independent public accounting firm: Ifft & Co. PA, 11030 Granada Lane, Overland Park, Kansas 66211 Audit period: Year ended December 31, 2022 The findings from December 31, 2022 schedule of findings and questioned costs are discussed below. The findings are numbered consistently with the numbers assigned in the schedule. Financial Statement Findings None Federal Award Findings FINDING NO 2022-001: Section 811, CFDA 14.181 Condition: Replacement reserve deposits were not made on a monthly basis and only nine deposits were made in 2022. Criteria: The regulatory agreement requires monthly deposits to the replacement reserve account. Effect: The replacement reserve account was underfunded at year-end. Context: All 2022 bank statements for the replacement reserve account were reviewed and the deposit dates noted. There were no deposits made for April, July or August 2022. There were no questioned costs. Cause: Due to cash flow, management was not able to make the deposits to the replacement reserve account on a monthly basis. Recommendation: Management should prioritize replacement reserve deposits to ensure they are made on a monthly basis. Additionally, management should make the deposits for the three months as soon as possible. Management Response and Corrective Action Plan Response: The required monthly deposit of $700 to the Reserve for Replacement Account was not made in April 2022, due to cash flow issues resulting from high expenses for snow removal in prior months which required completion of a payment plan in order to assure continued service. The required monthly deposits of $700 to the Reserve for Replacement Account were not made in July or August 2022, due to turnover in the Finance Department. A total of $2,100 is due to be deposited into this account; this will be done as soon as possible in 2023. Corrective Action Plan: Deposits to the Reserve for Replacement Account will be prioritized. Payment plans to vendors for non-critical items will be established and followed; payment of management fees to the managing agent, Mental Health America of the Heartland, will be deferred as needed until cash flow improves. Effort will be made to make all payments due to the managing agent within the calendar year, and efforts to seek additional funding for the property to improve overall funds available and cash flow will continue. The President/CEO and Director, Housing will review the Reserve for Replacement Account at semi-monthly cash planning meetings to assure that deposits are not overlooked.
