The District acknowledges the material correction of an error to the District’s financial statements. This situation occurred due to a material weakness in internal controls over compliance with federal award requirements for the Education Stabilization Fund (CFDA 84.425U), passed through the Colorado Department of Education, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. Specifically, the District lacked adequate segregation of duties over payroll and human resources processes, both of which were performed by a single employee without a secondary review. In addition, the District did not maintain adequate reimbursement request documentation or regularly reconcile ESSER grant expenditures to reimbursement requests, as required under 2 CFR 200.303. These conditions resulted in material audit 60 adjustments, significant audit delays, and the engagement of a third-party accounting firm to reconstruct grant records. Notwithstanding these control deficiencies, the District was in compliance with allowable activities, allowable costs, and cash management requirements, as allowable costs exceeded the amounts requested for reimbursement. Current management has improved procedures related to the oversight of federal grant compliance and payroll processes. The District has engaged a third-party accounting firm and hired new staff to assist with grants reconciliation, reimbursement request preparation, and internal controls over federal awards. A secondary review process has been established for payroll and human resources transactions to ensure that no single employee has unchecked control over these functions. Grant reconciliation responsibilities have been reassigned to incorporate segregation of duties, and a defined schedule for monthly ESSER reconciliations and reimbursement submissions has been implemented. We plan to have all ESSER grant activity fully reconciled, reimbursement documentation complete and available for review, and monthly reconciliation and secondary review procedures operational and documented for all applicable federal grant programs prior to the start of the audit process. Estimated date of implementation of the corrective action plan: June 30, 2026 Person responsible for implementation of the corrective action plan: Dr. Kirk Henwood

U.S. Department of Health and Human Services - Community Service Block Grant Material Weakness in Internal Control over Compliance - Other Matters Recommendation: We recommend the Neighborhood Service Center, Inc require both check signers to evidence review and approval of supporting documentation prior to signing the check.

Finding 2024-002, Transaction Support Condition: The Organization internal controls did not require all transactions to be properly documented and maintained. As a consequence, we noted the Organization was not readily able to document support for accounts receivable and investments holdings at October 31, 2024. In addition, the source and support for some revenue items selected for testing could not initially be explained or provided to the auditor to verify the reasonableness of the amount reported. Although once the Organization’s CEO became aware of the revenue testing issue she was able to identify the source documentation required to meet our audit requirements. Cause: There has been a high amount of turnover in the financial management side of the organization’s operation. Additionally, there were periods of time when accounting staff was not available because of a leave of absence. Other accounting staff tried to assist us in our request but due to the person’s limited time in the position it was difficult for them to identify the necessary support required. Effect: The Statements on Auditing Standards requires the independent auditor to review sufficient and adequate audit evidence in order to opine on the financial information. We were able to apply sufficient alternative procedures related to revenues selections. Additionally, we were able to have the Organization obtain subsequent documentation to verify the existence of the investment as of October 31, 2024. Result: It was difficult to obtain sufficient supporting documentation as required by auditing standards for all transactions subjected to audit verification.

Finding 2024-004 Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Federal Program Titles: Housing Voucher Cluster, Public and Indian Housing Program, Public Housing Capital Fund Program, and Coronavirus Relief Fund Assistance Listing Numbers: 14.871, 14.879, 14.850, 14.872, and 21.019 Material Noncompliance Non Compliance Material to the Financial Statements: Yes Material Weakness in Internal Control over Compliance Criteria: The Authority must maintain complete and accurate accounts and other records for the program in accordance with HUD compliance requirements. Condition: The Authority did not maintain complete and accurate accounts and other records in accordance with HUD compliance requirements regarding Activities Allowed or Unallowed, Allowable Costs/Cost Principles, Eligibility, Reporting, and Special Tests and Provisions. Context: The Authority was unable to provide requested documentation at the time of audit to properly test the HUD compliance requirements. Known Questioned Costs: Unknown Cause: There is a material weakness in internal controls over compliance related to the maintenance of tenant files, wait lists, inspection reports and other records. The Authority has not properly considered, designed, implemented, maintained and monitored a system of internal controls that reasonably assures the program is in compliance. Effect: The Housing Voucher Cluster and Public and Indian Housing Program are in material non- compliance with the compliance requirements of the program. Recommendation: We recommend that the Authority implement a process whereby Authority documents are stored and safeguarded to ensure compliance with the Uniform Guidance and the compliance supplement. View of Responsible Officials and Corrective Actions: The Authority experienced significant turnover in employees during the year and as a result certain source documents were misplaced or destroyed. Management agrees with the Auditors' finding and has hired a new Executive Director who will implement the required safeguards and ensure that the Authority follows its internal control over compliance processes and procedures related to the Housing Voucher Cluster, Public and Indian Housing Program and Public Housing Capital fund Program to remedy the aforementioned deficiencies. Bryant McClellan, CFO, will be responsible to implement this corrective action by December 31, 2025.
