2024-002 Special Tests and Provisions - Program Administration The Housing Authority of Okanogan County recognizes we had several oversights in our tenant file documentation and program administrative procedures during 2024. During April 2024, the Housing Authority of Okanogan County underwent a Comprehensive Compliance Monitoring Review review by the Seattle Field Office of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Their review report dated May 23, 2024 identified a number of findings and recommendations which were implemented in June and July 2024 by the Housing Authority of Okanogan County. The Housing Authority of Okanogan County provided the Seattle Field Office of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development supporting information documenting resolution and correction of each item identifi ed in thei r report. On October 30. 2024 Seattle Field Office of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development issued a letter documenting that the Authority has fully remedied each finding.

Finding #2024-001 – Other Noncompliance. Applicable federal program: U. S.

Finding #2024-001 – Other Noncompliance. Applicable federal program: U. S. Environmental Protection Agency, Passed through Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, Nonpoint Source Implementation Grants, Low Impact Development 2020, Assistance Listing #66.460, Contract period: 11/06/20 – 04/30/26, Contract number: 582-21-10148. Condition and context: Under the terms of its agreement with the Texas Commission in Environmental Quality, HARC receives reimbursement for a percentage of the expenditures incurred in performance of the funded program. Donated services utilized in performance of the program were included in reimbursement submitted to the grantor. Recommendation: Re-emphasize to program and accounting personnel federal grant requirements for the allowability of in-kind donations. Management’s response: Management concurs with the finding. This issue arose because the non-federal flow-through sponsor required certain in-kind cost share amounts to be invoiced as direct expenses, which conflicted with federal cost principles. It is important to note that while the questioned costs increased reported revenue for 2024, the program had unreimbursed expenditures. Corrective actions were implemented in the first half of 2025, including the hiring of new Grants and Contracts Management staff and strengthening of internal controls, to ensure compliance with federal requirements and prevent recurrence in future reporting. Responsible officer: Carmen Osier, Director of Business Operations. Estimated completion date: June 30, 2025.

The initial eligibility determinations are currently handled by the HCV department and are centralized. It has been determined that considerable investment in staff training has been made during the past twelve months. As a result, there has been staff turnover, some at the decision of TGHA, and some at the decision of staff. Initial eligibility is currently being restructured with an emphasis on new admissions. All procedures and processes are being evaluated for accuracy, with emphasis on the noted area of noncompliance and includes a complete review and update to the Administrative Plan. There will be increased staff training and file review. In July 2024, TGHA transitioned project-based files from a property management team to the Housing Choice Voucher Department. The files had not been electronically stored. Evidence pointed to deficiencies in file maintenance. TGHA has hired temporary staff for an extended period to focus on file organization and to correct documentation deficiencies. All HCV staff have completed Rent Calculation courses provided by NAHRO or Nan McKay during the fiscal year. There have been two managers hired for the department, one exclusively for project-based vouchers. Both attended NAHRO supervisory training in September. There will be an intensive focus on program integrity throughout the programs, including staff capability, training and monitoring. TGHA has contracted with a professional recruiter to assist in hiring a Director of the HCV and MTW programs. Recertification transactions will be monitored on a monthly basis. This will include validation of calculations and verification of correct documentation. TGHA files were fully in order by July 2025.

Programs were instruCt'ed to update all current (:1t files to include the rent reasonableness studies and this should happen annually when the lease is reneWed or any time a client needs to move to. another unit. Providers are also now maintaining a rent reasonableness tracking sheet with all rent related inforrnation for units considered for the rent reasonableness analysis, Also, during each monthly invoice review, program staff lookrat each rent payment within each grant and flag any rents that seem excessive and reacho‘ut to the provider with any :questidns:. If the rent is deemed too high. or ineligible, we will ask the provider to remove the amount from the invoice. We also have an updated, HUD approved, Rent Reasonableness policy, which has been provided to all housing providers.

We review each invoice monthly as they are submitted. Most of the review is insuring the items being invoiced are eligible under HUD and making sure the amounts are added correctly. We will review more closely the match submitted. Match for HUD is now reported based on the entire funding and not by individual grants. All match from all HUD programs is added together and submitted on one final report at the end of each funding year. The requirement is 25% on all budget lines except for Leasing. However, if one program’s match is short of the 25% requirement, the overall CoC is responsible for the filll match, so additional DHS admin costs are used to represent the additional match needed. For our FY23-24 annual report to HUD, we submitted 32.94% in match for the overall fimding. This amount did not include any additional HMIS (data system) costs, Allegheny Link (our coordinated entry system) costs or additional DHS admin costs. With these additional eligible activities, our matching amount could have been over 50%. Therefore, even if some identified items were considered ineligible our match would not be in jeopardy since we have a lot of eligible costs that DHS covers that would be considered match.
