A. Current Findings on the Schedule of Findings, Questioned Costs, and Recommendations 1. Finding 2025-001: Lack of Formalized Compliance Monitoring and Documented Management Oversight a. Comments on the Finding and Each Recommendation: We acknowledge the condition identified and note that corrective actions and compliance monitoring enhancements were implemented or initiated prior to report issuance. Historically, certain compliance oversight activities relied heavily on operational knowledge and informal review procedures that were not consistently documented. Following organizational restructuring and personnel transitions, management initiated a broader effort to formalize and strengthen internal compliance monitoring, supervisory review procedures, and documentation practices across our housing portfolio. b. Action(s) Taken or Planned on the Finding: 1. Monthly Compliance and Financial Oversight Meetings: We have implemented recurring monthly oversight meetings involving executive leadership, finance, and housing management personnel to review financial reporting, reserve activity, compliance requirements, tenant-related matters, and operational performance. Meeting documentation and evidence of supervisory review are maintained as part of our compliance monitoring procedures. 2. Expanded Finance and Compliance Oversight Structure: We have strengthened our internal oversight structure through the addition of a Chief Financial Officer with expanded oversight responsibilities for the housing entities and a Director of Housing and Compliance responsible for operational and regulatory compliance oversight. Responsibilities between accounting, compliance, and operational functions have been further segregated to strengthen internal controls and management review procedures. 3. Formalized Compliance Monitoring Procedures: We have implemented standardized compliance monitoring procedures, including monthly reserve deposit tracking, supervisory review checklists, documented financial statement review procedures, reconciliation monitoring, and periodic compliance checklists addressing key HUD program requirements. 4. Ongoing Monitoring and Documentation Retention: We will continue strengthening documentation retention procedures to ensure evidence of compliance monitoring, supervisory review, and reconciliation activities is consistently maintained and available for future audits and regulatory reviews.

Finding 2025-003 Duplicate expenditures charged to same grant Recommendation: We recommend the District establish and maintain proper review procedures for expenditures charged to grants prior to submission for reimbursement. Management’s View: The District will strengthen internal controls over payroll expenditures charged to federal grants by implementing a standard operating procedure that will be conducted by the Payroll Specialist of verifying payroll distribution reports, funding codes, and supporting documentation prior to submission for payment. Before each payroll is finalized, the payroll specialist will run a payroll report that will be generated and sorted by employee to verify that no duplicate charges have been applied to the same grant within the same payroll period. This review will ensure that all costs charged to federal grants during the pay period are accurate, allowable, properly coded, and not duplicated. No payroll adjustments will be keyed until timesheets have been verified against previously submitted timesheets and that they are reviewed to confirm that prior entries have not already been charged to the same grant. Additionally, a secondary review by the accountant will be conducted prior to finalizing grant-related payrolls. Effective March 1, 2026, the Payroll Accountant and Chief Financial Officer will review grant-related payroll transactions to ensure accuracy, proper funding allocation, and compliance with applicable federal requirements. Effective Date: March 1, 2026 Contact Person: Sylvia Garza, Chief Financial Officer, Edcouch-Elsa Independent School District

Finding No. 2025-004 Condition – Claims submitted for reimbursement did not reconcile with the District’s internally prepared monthly claim summary report. Plan – The District will ensure that meal counts are thoroughly reviewed prior to submission. Meal counts are entered into the computer by the FSMC, and has been a place where errors have occurred. The district secretary is responsible for entering the meal counts into the state system. She is verifying the counts from the FSMC, comparing to attendance and invoices, and ensuring correct data goes into IWAS. This was started last spring, when we became aware of FSMC inconsistencies. The current year, FY26, has been much more accurate. Anticipated Date of Completion: current – 9/1/2026 Name of Contact Person: Matt Stines, Superintendent

2025-004: Subrecipient Monitoring - Contractor vs. Subrecipient Determination (Significant Deficiency in Internal Control) Statement of Condition/Criteria: 2 CFR §200.331 requires pass-through entities to evaluate each subaward to determine whether the recipient is a subrecipient or a contractor.

2025-004: Subrecipient Monitoring - Contractor vs. Subrecipient Determination (Significant Deficiency in Internal Control) Statement of Condition/Criteria: 2 CFR §200.331 requires pass-through entities to evaluate each subaward to determine whether the recipient is a subrecipient or a contractor. This evaluation should be based on the characteristics outlined in 2 CFR §200.331(a) and (b) and documented to support proper classification. Effective internal control over federal awards also requires documentation of compliance-related judgments to ensure consistent application and oversight. During our testing of internal controls over compliance, we noted that the Organization does not maintain formal documentation supporting its evaluation of whether award recipients are classified as contractors or subrecipients in accordance with Uniform Guidance. Planned Corrective Action: The Council will work to implement requirements at the program level to evaluate and document all contracts to properly identify between contract and subaward. Contact person responsible for corrective action plan: Clayton Kincheloe, Executive Director Anticipated Completion Date: September 2026
2025-001: Delinquent Data Collection Form Filing (SF-SAC) (Noncompliance) Statement of Condition/Criteria: Uniform Guidance requires the auditee to submit a reporting package and Data Collection Form to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within the prescribed timeframe.

2025-001: Delinquent Data Collection Form Filing (SF-SAC) (Noncompliance) Statement of Condition/Criteria: Uniform Guidance requires the auditee to submit a reporting package and Data Collection Form to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within the prescribed timeframe. The auditee must submit the reporting package and DCF within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor’s reports, or 9 months after the end of the audit period. For the fiscal year ended 9/30/2024, the auditee’s Data Collection Form and reporting package were not submitted timely to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse. Failure to submit the Data Collection Form and reporting package timely may result in delayed federal oversight and monitoring, increased risk of federal agencies deeming the organization noncompliant with Single Audit requirements, or potential sanctions including withholding of federal awards and/or suspension of future funding. Planned Corrective Action: The Council will implement a Single Audit compliance calendar to ensure timely filing. The Executive Director will be responsible for submission of the Data Collection Form and reporting package and will retain confirmation documentation in the finance records. Contact person responsible for corrective action plan: Clayton Kincheloe, Executive Director Anticipated Completion Date: September 2026

CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN FOR FINDINGS REPORTED UNDER UNIFORM GUIDANCE Central Valley School District No. 356 September 1, 2024 through August 31, 2025 This schedule presents the corrective action the District is planning to take for findings included in this report in accordance with Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Finding ref number: 2025-001 Finding caption: The District did not have adequate internal controls for ensuring compliance with federal eligibility requirements. Name, address, and telephone of District contact person: Mathew Knott, Director of Business Services 2218 N. Molter Road Liberty Lake, WA 99019 509-558-5437 Corrective action the auditee plans to take in response to the finding: The District does agree that one school with a poverty rate above 75% was not served. However, OSPI reviewed and approved the District’s Title I application, including our proposed ranking and allocation methodology, and no concerns or comments were raised during that review process. Additionally, the District was able to provide alternative snapshot dates demonstrating that no individual school was truly above the 75% threshold. Once the District became aware of the issue, we proactively contacted OSPI to determine whether any corrective action was necessary for the current year. OSPI’s guidance was that no changes or corrections were required for the current year and that adjustments should instead be implemented in the following year if a school exceeded the 75% threshold. Based on that direction from OSPI, the District did not make current-year corrections. Given these circumstances, including OSPI’s prior approval of the application and subsequent guidance that no corrective action was required, the District respectfully disagrees with the State Auditor’s Office conclusion that this matter rises to the level of a Finding rather than being addressed through a Management Letter. We consider this matter to be resolved as no school going into the 2025-2026 fiscal year was above the 75% threshold. Anticipated date to complete the corrective action: 8/31/2025

Finding 2025-005: Documentation of Allocations for Certain Costs Recommendation: The Organization should reinforce its existing allocation documentation procedures by ensuring they are consistently applied to all disbursements charged to federal programs. Management should enhance oversight and monitoring controls to verify that required documentation is completed and retained for every applicable transaction. Action Taken: CMJTS has since worked with DEED to update our cost allocation policy, and DEED approved our new policy. In this policy, the CMJTS fiscal team will work with CMJTS program managers to update allocations for the upcoming month. Changes to allocations will be documented and saved for record retention. CMJTS also migrated to a new accounting system in February 2025 which makes it easier to track allocations and ensure required documentation is completed and retained.
Management Response: Management acknowledges the importance of timely submission of single audit reports to the State Auditor and FAC to ensure compliance. Management has made Professional Services changes to ensure timely audit compliance moving forward.

Description of Finding: The Association did not have proper review procedures in place to document that an individual other than the one who prepared the reports are reviewing them. Management Response: Management of the Cooperative concurs with the auditors’ finding related to documentation of independent review over federal grant reporting. Corrective Action: Reports submitted under the Community Wildfire Defense Grants program included a required certification signature by an authorized official; however, the state-provided reporting form did not include a separate preparer signature line. As a result, while management review and approval occurred prior to submission, documentation distinguishing report preparation from certification was not evident on the submitted forms. Management recognizes the importance of clearly documenting segregation of preparation and review responsibilities to evidence effective internal controls. To address this matter, the Cooperative will revise its grant reporting process to include documented identification of both the preparer and reviewer for all federal grant reports. When state-provided forms do not include a preparer acknowledgment, the Cooperative will supplement the form with an internal preparer certification or signature line that is retained with the grant file. Management believes these actions will strengthen documentation of internal controls over reporting while continuing to comply with state and federal reporting requirements. The Cooperative remains committed to responsible oversight and stewardship of federal grant funds for the benefit of its members. This change was implemented beginning with the first quarterly reporting period under the Grant Agreement in 2026. Projected Completion: A second signature line for the preparer was added to the Community Wildfire Defense Financial Progress Reports to document HEA’s review procedure. This was instituted with the First Quarterly Report submitted on 4/15/26. Responsible Official(s): Chief Financial Officer
NEIWPCC agrees with the finding and will strengthen its internal procedures to ensure timely submission of the Federal Audit Clearinghouse reporting package going forward.
