AUDITOR PREPARED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Name of contact person: Mayor and Clerk Corrective Action: We have considered the issue of Auditor-prepared financial statements. However, the City believes that the controls and practices in place adequately serve our needs and that the costs of hiring additional professionals to do this work would not justify the benefits to be gained. As long as we have confidence in the ability and experience of the accounting firm selected to do our audit, and as long as we actively participate in the preparation, preliminary review, and drafting of financial statements, we trust the reliability of the statements to effectively fulfill their purpose. Proposed Completion Date: The City will continue to monitor this concern and avoid problems that may raise questions concerning the reliability of the financial statements.

Management Response ? Because of the size of the office and the district, we are precluded from maintaining a proper staff size to ensure a proper segregation of duties. We are aware of this condition and we realize that the concentration of duties and responsibilities in a limited number of individuals in not desirable for an effective system of internal control. To mitigate the issue of lack of segregation of duties, we have cross trained virtually each of the business office employees. While we do have a dedicated payroll person, another individual will perform cross checks & verifications independently. The same goes for issuing checks, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and ac?vity funds. These func?ons are overseen by the business manager.

CFDA No. 14.181 Recommendation: Responsibilities and duties should be segregated whenever possible. When this condition exists, management?s and the board?s close supervision and review of accounting information can help to prevent or detect errors and irregularities. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action planned in response to finding: Because the number of staff is inadequate to fully segregate duties, we feel that management staff must have the ability to record disbursement transactions and reconcile bank accounts with the general ledger, particularly for training purposes and periods when there are staff vacancies.

Views of Responsible Officials: Since early 2021, City Staff funded by CDBG/HOME entitlement grants have utilized electronic timesheets to track time spent working on the various programs by adjusting their weekly time entries to reflect actual time spent on a specific eligible activity. In some cases, these activities are also tracked by a Journal Entry (JE) with a description of the eligible activities and an hourly breakdown provided to supplement the JE. These tracking methods ensure amounts charged to the federal awards are accurate, allowable, and properly allocated. Additionally, both of the methods above require supervisor approval and all City staff approving electronic time sheets related to CDBG/HOME grants have been instructed to ensure time entries are correct and eligible, with technical assistance provided by the City?s CDBG/HOME grant administration staff as needed. All coding changes performed by finance department personnel will be sent via email for approval by supervisors until the payroll division can implement new procedures through the electronic time sheet system that will route approvals to supervisors through the established electronic workflow. Timesheet approval reviewers have since been updated to ensure proper supervisory personnel approves all timesheets in the event primary reviewers are absent or unable to approve.

CAP for Finding: 2022-304 DATE: March 23, 2023 TO: Carolyn Stittleburg, Deputy State Auditor Legislative Audit Bureau FROM: Barry Kasten, Director Bureau of Fiscal Services Department of Health Services SUBJECT: Corrective Action Plan ? Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds ? Monitoring of Local and Tribal Health Department Response and Recovery Support Program Expenditures Department staff has reviewed the Legislative Audit Bureau?s (LAB) interim audit memo for Finding 2022-304: Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds ? Monitoring of Local and Tribal Health Department Response and Recovery Support Program Expenditures. This is the department?s Corrective Action Plan. ? Recommendation (2022-304): Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds ? Monitoring of Local and Tribal Health Department Response and Recovery Support Program Expenditures We recommend the Wisconsin Department of Health Services: ? Develop and implement written policies and procedures for the review and tracking of the quarterly reports used to monitor expenditures under the Local and Tribal Health Department Response and Recovery Support program. Wisconsin Department of Health Services Planned Corrective Action: As beneficiaries, the Treasury Guidance indicates that Local and Tribal Health Departments are not subject to subrecipient monitoring and reporting requirements. The designation of beneficiary is unique to the CSLFRF and thus is not as familiar to DHS as the subrecipient designation and subsequent reporting requirements. The uncertainty surrounding this designation resulted in DPH not following the best practices described in the DPH Contract Management Manual. DPH?s Contract Management Manual outlines requirements and best practices for contract management. This Manual describes how to best review and track expenditures to monitor expenditures. The Manual encourages the best practice of requesting enhanced expenditure reporting from agencies, in addition to the reporting required for CARS payments. The Manual describes the role of the contract administrator in reviewing the expenditure information against the approved budget to ensure expenses are reasonable and allowable. The Manual also suggests maintaining copies of submitted reports and verifying the amounts in the submitted reports correspond to CARS reports. Examples of expenditure tracking are provided as is a description of how this tracking and other fiscal monitoring supports bureaus within DPH and DHS. DHS will review the existing policies and procedures in the Contract Management Manual to ensure that the level of detail is sufficient to prevent further non-compliance. We recommend the Wisconsin Department of Health Services: ? Maintain the quarterly reports, document its review of the quarterly reports, and document its correspondence with the public health departments regarding resolution of reporting variances. Wisconsin Department of Health Services Planned Corrective Action: DPH hired a position in June 2022 to manage and track expenditures and reporting for its Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds granted to locals and tribal public health departments. DPH will continue to review, track, and maintain quarterly reports, and document correspondence with the local and tribal public health departments per best practices in the DPH Contract Management Manual. We recommend the Wisconsin Department of Health Services: ? Review the contracts with the public health departments and determine whether any revisions are needed to clarify expectations for documentation and timeliness of filing the quarterlyreports; and Wisconsin Department of Health Services Planned Corrective Action: DPH will review its contracts with the local and tribal public health departments and ensure timely filing of quarterly reports. Specific areas of non-compliance have been identified and division staff will review and draft updated scope of work language to mitigate delays in reporting from our local partners. We recommend the Wisconsin Department of Health Services: ? Ensure it obtains quarterly reports to support the payments it made to the City of Milwaukee Public Health Department. Wisconsin Department of Health Services Planned Corrective Action: DPH has now obtained quarterly reports from the City of Milwaukee Public Health Department and is in the process of reviewing them. Division staff will work with the City of Milwaukee Health Department to ensure future compliance.

CAP for Finding: 2022-100 Auditor Recommendation: Develop and implement controls to identify when an applicant applies for funding under multiple programs and to assess the appropriateness of whether it would be making payments to an applicant that applies under multiple programs. Planned Corrective Action: The Wisconsin Department of Administration (DOA or Department) will develop and implement controls to identify when an applicant applies for funding under multiple programs and to assess the appropriateness of whether it would be making payments to an applicant that applies under multiple programs. The controls will be documented in the Department?s Grants Management Guide and will consider, among other things, the purpose of the assistance being awarded and the criteria for the award. As the auditors noted specific to this finding and recommendation, DOA implemented controls for certain programs where it was anticipated an applicant might apply under more than one program. For programs where the controls were not implemented prior to award, the Department has subsequently reviewed to verify that an applicant was not paid for the same losses under more than one program, and none aside from that which was the condition for this finding were identified. Anticipated Completion Date: June 30, 2023 Auditor Recommendation: Review the specific payments made to the organization we identified and seek repayment of the amount that was made inappropriately. Planned Corrective Action: DOA has reviewed the specific payments made to the organization identified by the auditors and sought repayment of the amount that was not properly paid.
