Statement of Condition: The US Department of Housing and Urban Development conducted a Management and Occupancy Review (MOR) on November 28, 2022. Their report, dated November 28, 2022, reflected a below average rating related to Leasing and Occupancy and General Management Practices. However, the report did give an above average rating related to physical building inspection. Criteria: The Housing assistance Payments (HAP) Contract requires compliance regarding the physical building and tenant files to be in accordance with the contract requirements. Effect: Failure to comply with the Regulatory Agreement and the HAP contract is a violation of HUD regulations. Cause: The property was in the process of transitioning the management over to a new management agent, making it more difficult to maintain effective policies and procedures related to the tenant files and recertifications. Recommendation: Management must perform the corrective actions as required by the MOR by the target completion date. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: The Board and Management agree with the findings and the new management agent has taken action to correct the findings and implement the recommendations. Action Taken: As of the date of these financial statements, these steps had been taken and the property received a notice from HUD stating that they had satisfactorily completed all corrective action and that the MOR was considered closed. Anticipated Completion Date: Completed.

Condition: The Authority did not maintain complete and accurate accounts and other records in accordance with HUD compliance requirements including 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 and Public and Indian Housing 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 and Public and Indian Housing Programs to remedy the aforementioned deficiencies. Byran McClellan, CFO, will be responsible to implement this corrective action by December 31, 2022.
