Management concurs with the findings. During the fiscal year, turnover in key finance leadership positions impacted on the continuity of accounting operations and reduced the effectiveness of established financial close and reconciliation processes. • Strengthened financial leadership and oversight by elevating the lead finance position to a Chief Financial Officer role and recruiting a highly qualified finance executive. • Filled critical finance and accounting positions to enhance internal controls, improve accountability, and ensure adequate operational oversight. • Documenting and formalizing month-end and year-end close procedures, including detailed reconciliation requirements and review responsibilities. • Implementing standardized account reconciliation templates and review sign-off procedures for all significant balance sheet accounts. • Cross-training accounting personnel and maintaining written process documentation to reduce operational risks associated with staff turnover.

Finding #2024-005 – Lack of Written Grant Procedures over Federal Programs Criteria: Under Federal Uniform Guidance, all non-Federal subrecipient entities must establish and maintain written policies and procedures over Federal programs. Written grant procedures are required in the areas of verifying allowable costs, cash management, and conflicts of interest, while procurement, subrecipient monitoring, and reporting procedures should also be included. Condition: During their audit procedures, the auditors noted that the City did not have comprehensive written grant procedures governing key compliance areas. Cause: The City’s management has relied on informal practices and institutional knowledge rather than formulating a grant procedures manual. Effect: Without written procedures, there is an increased risk of noncompliance with Uniform Guidance, including improper cost charging, non-compliant procurement, untimely drawdowns or cash on hand, inadequate subrecipient oversight, and ineffective internal controls. This exposes the City to the risk of questioned costs, potential repayment of federal funds, audit findings, and other possible impacts. Recommendation: The auditors recommend that the City develop, approve, and implement a consolidated Federal grant procedures manual. The procedures should not be a replication of the Federal requirements but instead step-by-step processes that are necessary to be in compliance with the Federal guidelines. Response: The City will begin the process of drafting and approving a Federal grant procedures manual in order to be in compliance with Federal requirements going forward.

Finding #2024-001 – Material Audit Adjustments Criteria: Proper financial closing and year-end reconciliation procedures should be in place to identify and adjust the financial records to ensure the financial statements are fairly stated. Condition: The auditors proposed audit adjustments that, if not made, would have resulted in the financial statements being materially misstated. Cause: Financial information was not recorded in a timely manner and material adjustments were needed in order to correct various transactions. Effect: The City’s system of internal control may not prevent, detect, or correct misstatements in the financial statements. Financial reports generated by the accounting system may not provide an accurate reflection of the City’s financial position or activities. Not reconciling accounts on a timely basis could lead to errors or other problems not being recognized and resolved. Recommendation: The auditors recommend that policies and procedures should be implemented to ensure account balances are properly recorded and reconciled in a timely manner. Response: The City acknowledges their responsibility for the financial statements and recording of the current year activity. Going forward, the City will work toward verifying that all activity is completely and accurately recorded in the financial records and reflected on the financial statements.

Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action The Organization concurred with the prior year (2023-004) and current year renumbered recommendation (2024-004), acknowledging that the unexpected resignation of the former independent auditor (January 2023), and the domino effect of a delay in securing a new independent auditor (April 2023) continue to challenge the Organization, however, the Organization notes the status and progress of the following single audits: • June 30, 2022, filed in the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) in February 2025. • June 30, 2023, filed in the FAC in March 2026. • June 30, 2024, final review by Board in progress, projected filing in the FAC in June 2026. • June 30, 2025, engagement field work in progress with projected filing date no later than September 2026. • June 30, 2026, engagement letter signed with scheduled field work to commence after the June 30, 2025, audit FAC filing; projected to be completed with related FAC filing, no later than March 2027. The Organization notes the corrective actions that have been implemented, regarding internal controls to ensure compliance with the Uniform Guidance with respect to the submission deadline of single audit reports and the Data Collection Form: A. Internal Controls in Practice Since Inception of New Auditor Engagement – April 2023. As noted in the prior year corrective action response, the Organization established internal compliance controls related to the timely submission of single audit reports. Such process and review controls are implemented by the director of administrative operations, chief of staff (since December 2024), and chief executive officer; and subsequently communicated to the Board finance sub-committee and full Board, including the documented Board action(s) taken (e.g., Board agenda, minutes). B. Financial Policies and Procedures – May 2025. By May 2025, the Organization completed financial policies related to: implementation of significant accounting policies, internal control environment, cash and banking, cash disbursements and check issuance, payroll processes, procure to pay and revenue recognition policies, processes and procedures. Note the internal control policy of the Organization documents process and review controls, which were already in practice, applying to the timely filing of single audit reports. The current practices of the Organization, to the present period of the report dated June 17, 2026 is consistent with established process and review controls for timely submission of single audit reports.

Federal Agency Name: Department of Agriculture Assistance Listing Number: 10.766 Program Name: Community Facilities Loans and Grants Finding Summary: The Hospital did not have an adequate internal control policy in place to ensure the proper disbursement and funding of the reserve account. Although management obtained a waiver for the noncompliance, the lack of adequate policies governing proper funding of reserve increases the risk that employees participating in the federal award administration may not be able to detect and correct noncompliance in a timely manner. Corrective Action Plan: Management will review and enhance internal control policies to ensure that there is proper funding of the reserve accounts. Responsible Individuals: Jody Nelson, CEO and Megan Peterson, CFO

The County of Norfolk, Massachusetts respectfully submits the following corrective action plan for the year ended June 30, 2024 Name and address of the independent public accounting firm: CBIZ CPA’s 53 State Street, 17th Floor Boston, MA 02109 Audit Periods: July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024 2024-002: Other Matters – Filing in Accordance with OMB Guidance Criteria or Specific Requirement: OMB guidelines require the Single Audit to be completed and submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse no later than nine months after fiscal year end. Condition: The failure to reconcile accounts promptly has resulted in delays in the completion of the County’s financial statement audits and single audit filings over multiple years. Cause: The County lacks effective internal controls and established procedures to ensure timely and accurate reconciliation of accounts, which has hindered the audit process and led to delays in meeting Single Audit reporting deadlines. Effect: The County is not in compliance with the OMB guidelines. Recommendation: We recommend that County management develop and implement formal policies and procedures to ensure timely account reconciliations and accurate financial reporting. These procedures should specifically address the requirements for the timely completion and submission of the Single Audit, in accordance with OMB guidelines. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: The factors contributing to the delays in financial reporting have been resolved and the county plans on being in full compliance for the SEFA reporting by fiscal year 2026. If the Oversight Agency has questions regarding this plan, please call John Cronin at (781) 234-3435. Sincerely yours, John Cronin
