FINDING 2004-006 Finding Subject: COVID-19-Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds Reporting Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Celita Green, City Controller Contact Phone Number and Email Address: 219-881-5085 Views of Responsible Officials: We concur with the finding that Total Cumulative Expenditures reported for Quarter 2 report (April 1, 2024 to June 30, 2024) and Quarter 3 report (July 1, 2024 to September 30, 2024) were understated. However, there is no mechanism to file corrective to the State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (“SLFRF”) Compliance Quarterly Reports with the Treasury reporting system once they are submitted. The City did make cumulative adjustments in the Quarter 4 report (October 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024) to agree with Cumulative Expenditures in the Report with the City’s accounting records, once the City determined the cumulative totals were inaccurate prior to being audited. Description of Corrective Action Plan: As stated above, the City did make cumulative adjustments in the Quarter 4 report (October 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024) to agree with Cumulative Expenditures with the City’s accounting records, in accordance with the periodic updates to the “Compliance and Reporting Guidance for State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds” issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, which indicates how to make cumulative adjustments in the current quarter’s report. Since the 4th Quarter 2024 Compliance Report, the City’s totals agree with Treasury Quarterly Reports to date. . Anticipated Completion Date: Actions were completed on January 30, 2025
