Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions Finding Reference: 2023-001 Responsible Individual: Melissa Mason Operator Foundation received a pass-through, subgrant extension from a partner organization under 19.22 Regional Democracy Program during the calendar year 2023. The subgrant paperwork Operator received from the partner did not include an Audit Certification form. The form was later provided and requested by the pass through entity on March 18, 2024, and Operator provided the form on the same day that the email request was received. However, passthrough recipients are required to submit a completed Audit Certification Form within 30 days of the end of each subrecipient fiscal year. Operator’s controls did not realize that the form was missing from the provided award package. Corrective Action Plan (CAP) Operator Foundation will strengthen the internal controls as it relates to submitting required reports to its granting agencies by establishing policies and procedures to ensure that reporting information is submitted timely. Operator will review each grant at inception and list out requirements related to reporting and deadlines. Operator Foundation will ensure that all reporting requirements are put on the organizational tracking system including calendars and that reminders are set to ensure timely submission. Operator will communicate any missing requirements in award packages to the funder for the purpose of strengthening compliance of all responsible parties receiving federal funds.

2023-001 Reporting - Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds Assistance Listing Number 21.027 Grant Period - Year Ended December 31, 2023 Condition Found The City failed to submit all quarterly reports, in a timely manner. We consider this to be an instance of non-compliance relating to the Reporting Compliance Requirement. Corrective Action Plan The City attempted to file the required quarterly reports during the year ended December 31, 2023. However, the U.S. Treasury changed the reporting software during the first quarter of the year. Due to a technical issue with the file validation process, the City was unable to submit the reports. The information was tracked and compiled but the software prevented the City from completing the reporting process. The City contacted the technical support team numerous times for assistance in resolving this issue, however the issue was not resolved until the second quarter of 2024 when the City was finally able to file their report. This will not be an issue going forward. Responsible Person for Corrective Action Plan Linda Read, Comptroller/Deputy Treasurer Implementation Date of Corrective Action Plan The City received communication from the U.S. Treasury on June 18, 2024 that the technical issue has been fixed and the city was able to file the report for the second quarter in 2024.

These Tracking Sheets have been used by the Director since February 2023. The 1 selection not in compliance was posted prior to the Director’s hire date. No findings have been identified after the Director’s hire date.

Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance - Reporting Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Federal Program Name: Aging Cluster Assistance Listing Number; 93.044 / 93.045 / 93.053 Federal Award Identification Number and Year: DA23-1109-2023 Pass-Through Agency: City of Seattle Pass-Through Number(s): DA23-1109 Award Period: January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023 Criteria or specific requirement: 2 CFR 200.303(a) states that a non-Federal entity must “Establish and maintain effective internal control over the Federal award that provides reasonable assurance that the non- Federal entity is managing the Federal award in compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal award. These internal controls should be in compliance with guidance in “Standards for Internal Control in the Federal Government” issued by the Comptroller General of the United States or the “Internal Control Integrated Framework”, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring the Organization of the Treadway Commission (COSO).” Condition: During testing of reporting, it was noted that, for one sample, documentation was not retained of approval of financial reporting. Questioned Costs: None Context: A sample of 9 financial reports was made from a population of 54 total reports. Of the 9 sampled, 1 was missing evidence of authorized personnel review and approval. Cause: In this one instance, verbal approval was given rather than emailed approval. Effect: Without adequate documentation and controls in place to ensure costs are reasonable and intended for the program charged, Sound Generations could incorrectly charge expenditures to the federal program, report fraudulent expenditures, or not request appropriate reimbursement that Sound Generations is entitled to under the terms of the grant. Repeat Finding: No. Recommendation: CLA recommends that documentation is retained as proof of authorized personnel review. Views of responsible officials and planned corrective actions: Sound Generations agrees with the finding. Sound Generations has revised its approval process to include digital signatures with time stamps by authorized personnel on all documentation rather than emailed approvals.

Action Taken: MHA will review and enhance as necessary the program’s existing quality control (QC) file review procedures as well as daily data validation reports to include a measure that cross-checks existing reports in the Yardi system of record and aids in validating data routinely submitted to HUD’s PIC system. To further mitigate the risk posed by frequent turnover among Housing Specialist-I (HS-I) staff, MHA will increase the frequency of training on rent and income determination for all staff including tenured team members and new hires, alike, to occur quarterly. In 2023, MHA implemented a Housing Specialist-II Team Lead to oversee HS-I staff processing annual reexaminations in accordance with 24 CFR 982.516. This team member is responsible for ensuring families are notified in a timely manner and if they do not comply with the annual reexamination requirement, they receive termination notices in compliance with HUD and MHA Administrative Plan requirements. MHA also implemented two compliance analysts in 2023; we will add another compliance analyst staff person in 2024 to increase the percentage of files undergoing quality control review. These three (3) Compliance Analyst will report to the Operations and Compliance Manager who monitors HUD’s PIC system and analyzes discrepancies between PIC data and MHA data housed in the Yardi system of record.
