Finding 2022-003 – Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds – Activities Allowed or Unallowed (Significant Deficiency) Management’s Response or Department’s Response Management agrees with the finding and recommendation. Views of Responsible Officials and Corrective Action At the time of approval, the Board Agenda Item for the Congregate Setting Payment (CSP) program did not clearly state under which expenditure category this expense would fall under. Upon further research and as identified in the County’s Recovery Plan Annual Report, the CSP program should have been classified under the expenditure category for Public Health and Negative Economic Impacts (EC 3) as it addressed the negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic experienced by the County, by providing a retention incentive to specific positions working in congregate settings. The County will be working with the Treasury to properly categorize the payments to its correct Expenditure Category. The County will be in communication with the CAO’s office to ensure that expenditures reported in the Project and Expenditure Quarterly Reports (P&E) are in agreement with the intended expenditure categories as specified in the County’s Recovery Plan. The County will revise the CSP program to properly reflect its correct expenditure category in the next P&E Report, due July 31, 2024, for Quarter 1 2024. An agenda item will be submitted for approval to the County Board of Supervisors which will memorialize the CSP program by April 2024.

Finding Number: 2023-001 Condition: The College did not timely return the Title IV funds (R2T4) for 3 students. Planned Corrective Action: As outlined in the audit finding, the auditors noted three of the forty R2T4 transactions reviewed (7.5%) were not completed within the required timeframe. We have reviewed these transactions and agree with the auditor’s determination. Given that only three calculations were identified as late, we consider these to be anomalies and not reflective of our overall operating practice. As the auditors state, all three of these transactions were calculated correctly and were all three associated with the Fall term. Since that time, we have instituted new processes to help ensure the timely processing of all R2T4 calculations. These new processes include cross-training of staff to help ensure complete coverage of duties regarding this task. In addition, financial aid staff relating to R2T4 activities have received additional training with a financial aid consultant to help ensure both timeliness and accuracy.
