Finding 2021-004 Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Federal Program Titles: Housing Voucher Cluster and Public and Indian Housing Program Assistance Listing Numbers: 14.871, 14.879, and 14.850 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 including 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 and Public and Indian Housing Programs to remedy the aforementioned deficiencies. Byran McClellan, CFO, will be responsible to implement this corrective action by December 31, 2022.

Following the Period 1 submission, the Organization identified that the patient revenue figures used in the lost revenue calculation did not reconcile to the audited financial statements. The lost revenue model was subsequently re performed using audited patient revenue data, and the corrected calculation was incorporated into the Period 4 PRF submission. To prevent recurrence, the Organization has strengthened its internal review protocols for reporting, including mandatory reconciliation of all revenue inputs to audited financial statements and secondary review by the Regional Controller prior to submission. These enhanced controls ensure that future lost revenue calculations are accurate, supportable, and compliant with HRSA reporting requirements.
