The Department of Human Services (DHS) and Department of Health Care Finance (DHCF) DC Access System (DCAS) team agree with the findings. For the twelve (12) findings, DHS/ESA has identified the description of the deficiencies, examined the magnitude and geographic extent of the deficiencies, identified the actions completed to eliminate the deficiencies. The District will focus on efforts that will create the maximum impact, which includes creating new options for collaboration, streamlining current communication, and introducing cross-functional prioritization. These strategies will help the District move projects toward completion and are rooted in continuous quality improvement. To guide its strategic efforts and track its impact, DHS has outlined the following four phases of corrective action plans to be taken to ensure the deficiencies will be eliminated: • Review and Prioritization, • Design and Development, • Implementation, and • Monitor and Evaluation. Each phase has several process steps including a completion document that signals the permission to move to the next phase. The detailed process steps are documented under DHS’ Consolidated Semi-Annual SNAP Advance Warning Letter Corrective Action Plan and FFY2026 Quality Control Corrective Action Plan reports. The corrective action plan is facilitated by the Quality Improvement Program and since implementing this process in January 2021, the District has identified root causes for errors and gaps in internal auditing and evaluation processes. Therefore, the flow of the semi-annual corrective action plans reflects the District’s commitment to a collaborative corrective action plan - expanding the data analysis section to include data and analysis of internal methods, a complete summary of each phase completed, and a timeline for upcoming phase/project completion.

We concur with the finding and are implementing procedures to address all issues. The untimely submission of the SF-425 resulted from deficiencies in internal controls during the fiscal year end closeout process. Specifically, responsibilities for tracking and submitting required federal reports were not sufficiently defined, and monitoring procedures did not ensure that reporting deadlines were met. CAP is implementing corrective actions to strengthen its reporting processes. These actions include establishing a formal reporting calendar that identifies all required federal reporting deadlines, clearly assigning responsibility and backup responsibility for report preparation and submission, and implementing a documented supervisory review process to verify that reports are submitted timely. These corrective measures are intended to ensure compliance with reporting requirements and improve accountability. CAP expects these actions to be fully implemented by 30 September 2026.

Audit Finding Reference Number: 2025 – 003 Finding: NERACOOS submitted FFATA reports for the initial subaward agreements; however, the reports were not updated timely for subsequent subaward amendments. Specifically, amended subaward amounts and amendment dates were not reported timely and accurately in SAM.gov. Corrective Action Plan: Develop a subaward amendment tracking log to record all subaward modifications, including amendment dates, revised subaward amounts, and FFATA reporting due dates. The log will be updated each time a subaward amendment is executed. Establish a written procedure requiring that any subaward amendment triggering a change in amount or key data be reported in SAM.gov within the required timeframe (no later than the end of the month following the month in which the obligation or award was made). Designate a staff member responsible for FFATA reporting compliance and assign a backup to ensure coverage during absences. Implement a quarterly reconciliation between executed subaward agreements/amendments and SAM.gov reporting records to identify and remediate any unreported or inaccurate entries. Provide training to relevant Finance and Grants Management staff on FFATA reporting requirements under 2 CFR Section 200.332 and SAM.gov reporting procedures. Retroactively update SAM.gov for any subaward amendments identified during the audit as not having been reported or reported inaccurately. Responsible Official: Jake Kritzer, Executive Director Anticipated Completion Date: August 31, 2026 (retroactive corrections); ongoing quarterly reconciliation beginning July 2026
Audit Finding Reference Number: 2025 – 002 Finding: NERACOOS recorded federal grant revenue for certain grants related to FY2025 activities in FY2026, based on the timing of reimbursement receipts rather than when the underlying expenditures were incurred.

Audit Finding Reference Number: 2025 – 002 Finding: NERACOOS recorded federal grant revenue for certain grants related to FY2025 activities in FY2026, based on the timing of reimbursement receipts rather than when the underlying expenditures were incurred. As a result, federal grant revenue and related receivables for FY2025 were understated, while revenue in FY2026 was overstated for the related amounts. In addition, this may lead to misstatements in financial reporting if similar cutoff issues occur in future periods. Corrective Action Plan: Develop and implement a formal year-end revenue cutoff checklist specifically for federal grants. The checklist will require a review of all active federal awards within 60 days and then again in 30 days of fiscal year-end to identify allowable expenditures incurred but not yet reimbursed. Establish a procedure to record grant receivables and revenue accruals for identified unbilled costs prior to closing the accounting records each fiscal year. Train the Finance staff responsible for grant accounting on the accrual basis requirements under 2 CFR Part 200 and proper cutoff procedures. Incorporate a supervisory review step into the year-end close process to verify that all grant-related receivables and revenue accruals have been posted before the books are closed. Incorporate the cutoff review into the annual audit preparation timeline and document results for auditor review. Review the FY2025 federal financial reports submitted for CFDA 11.012 to determine whether any amendments or corrections are required, and coordinate with the federal agency as appropriate. Prior to submission of any federal financial reports (e.g., SF-425 Federal Financial Reports), confirm that recorded grant revenue and expenditures reflect all accrued amounts throughout the reporting period. Review draft federal financial reports against the general ledger before submission to verify consistency between reported and recorded amounts. Responsible Official: Jake Kritzer, Executive Director Anticipated Completion Date: September 30, 2026

Description of Finding: The organization did not complete and submit its Single Audit within the required timeframe due to special projects (mortgage sales) that dramatically limited staff bandwidth in key financial management positions, resulting in delays in audit coordination and reporting and the timing of commencing the audit.Statement of Concurrence: The organization concurs with this finding.Corrective Action: The organization has resolved the underlying cause of this finding by streamlining the data collection process related to mortgage sales transactions. Furthermore, the organization is in the process of reorganizing the financial department to streamline workflows. The Staff Accountant in partnership with the Director of Finance & Administration are responsible for oversight of financial reporting, compliance with Uniform Guidance (2 CFR Part 200), and coordination of the Single Audit process.Corrective actions implemented include:• Departmental reorganization is underway to streamline workflows and provide clear ownership of departmental responsibilities (including single audit compliance) between Staff Accountant and Director of Finance and Administration.• Development of a formal audit timeline and internal milestones to ensure timely audit initiation, completion, and submission.• Strengthening of internal controls over financial reporting and audit documentation.• Ongoing communication and coordination with external auditors to ensure compliance with federal audit requirements. These actions ensure that future Single Audits will be completed and submitted timely in accordance with Uniform Guidance.Status of Finding: This finding resulted from unexpected special projects that limited financial staff bandwidth as well as fragmented workflows, which have both been addressed. Corrective action is in process.Projected Completion Date: Corrective action completed as of 6/5/2026, with ongoing monitoring incorporated into standard financial management procedures.

Program: Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers (HCV) Finding: 2025-002 Finding Title: Internal Controls and Compliance over the Timeliness of Housing Choice Voucher Participant Re-examination and Recertification Identification as a repeat finding if applicable: 2024-003 Contact Person: Michelle Mel-Duch, Housing Administrative and Financial Services Officer, Health & Human Services Department, (562) 570-5344, Michelle.Mel-Duch@longbeach.gov Planned Actions: Staffing Augmentation and Organizational Support HACLB has recruited additional Housing Specialists to support management of the high-volume Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) Program, improve processing efficiency, and ensure compliance with HUD requirements and program deadlines.

These positions provide strategic oversight of program operations, staff productivity, workload management, resource allocation, and performance monitoring. As of June 23, 2026, eight Housing Specialists have been hired and have undergone training. HACLB has requested renewal of the supervisory eligibility list to fill several vacant supervisory positions critical to operational oversight and staff development. To further reduce the backlog, HACLB has reassigned duties and created a dedicated team responsible for tracking overdue recertifications, monitoring progress, and implementing measures to ensure ongoing compliance. Contracted Support Services To accelerate backlog reduction efforts, HACLB renewed its contract with an external agency to provide dedicated assistance with processing overdue reexaminations. Additionally, HACLB has initiated a competitive procurement process to secure supplemental third-party support services to assist with backlog clearance and provide additional operational capacity while newly hired staff complete training and onboarding. Technology Improvements HACLB has transitioned to a new housing management software platform (MRI PHA Pro) designed to improve annual recertification tracking, workflow management, reporting capabilities, and productivity monitoring.

Finding No. 2025-001 Preparation of the schedule of expenditures of federal awards Responsible Personnel: John M. Quinata, Executive Manager During the audit, the Authority reviewed the federally funded airport improvement projects (AIP) to ensure that all applicable items charged to the projects were accounted for. Correcting entries were made to FY25 and FY24 was restated to address the identified misstatements. To prevent future issues from occurring, the Authority has updated its procedures to enhance the process for identifying federal receivables and controls for reviewing and reconciling the SEFA with financial statement records. Timely reviews will take place at least quarterly. Any future changes to the process must be discussed, agreed upon with management, and documented.

Finding 2025-002 - Untimely Submission of the Single Audit Reporting Package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse Noncompliance | Repeat Finding | Entity-Wide Questioned Costs: None Repeat Finding: Yes - repeat of Finding 2024-004; fourth consecutive year Responsible Official(s): Juan E. Rodriguez, Executive Director (primary); Josafat Saldivar, Finance Director Anticipated Completion Date: June 30, 2027 (for the fiscal year 2026 single audit cycle) Management Response: STDC concurs with the finding. The fiscal year 2024 single audit reporting package was submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse after the nine-month regulatory deadline, marking the fourth consecutive year of late submission. STDC understands that timely submission is essential to maintaining compliance and to supporting removal of its high-risk auditee designation. Corrective Action to Be Taken: STDC will adopt a board-approved audit readiness calendar under which year-end records are closed and reconciled within 90 days of fiscal year end, the auditor is engaged by December, and complete supporting documentation is delivered to the auditor by February. STDC will target Federal Audit Clearinghouse submission by April of each year, well ahead of the nine-month deadline. For the fiscal year 2025 audit, STDC has worked to complete the engagement on an accelerated schedule with a target submission on or before the June 30, 2026 deadline. Achieving timely submission for the fiscal year 2025 cycle and maintaining it thereafter is expected to support removal of the high-risk auditee designation in a future audit cycle.

Finding 2025-001 - Untimely Submission of Financial Status and Expenditure Reports, All Major Programs Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance and Noncompliance | Repeat Finding Questioned Costs: None Repeat Finding: Yes - repeat of Findings 2024-001 and 2024-003 Responsible Official(s): Josafat Saldivar, Finance Director (primary); Juan E. Rodriguez, Executive Director (oversight and approval) Anticipated Completion Date: September 30, 2026 Management Response: STDC concurs with the finding. STDC acknowledges that financial status and expenditure reports were submitted late across all major programs during fiscal year 2025. STDC recognizes that the submission calendar implemented as the prior-year corrective action did not operate effectively, in part because financial report preparation depends on a single staff member in the finance function. Corrective Action to Be Taken: STDC will implement a hard financial-report close calendar establishing preparation deadlines no later than 10 days after each reporting period end, with required submission well in advance of each contractual due date. STDC will cross-train a second staff member to prepare financial status reports so that submissions do not depend on a single individual. The Executive Director will review the submission calendar monthly, and STDC will track actual submission dates against contractual deadlines on a monitoring dashboard reviewed at each board finance committee meeting. STDC expects these measures to restore timely reporting across all programs during fiscal year 2026.

Finding #2025-002 – Reporting – Significant Deficiency and Other Noncompliance. Applicable federal program: Department of Treasury, Passed through Harris County, Texas, Assistance Listing #: 21.027 – COVID-19 – Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds, Contract Number: SLFRFP1966, Contract Year: 10/31/24 – 12/31/26. Condition and context: MAM incurred qualifying construction expenditures that were properly recorded as CIP. However, MAM did not record government grant revenue or a related grants receivable for the qualifying expenditures incurred during the fiscal year and did not identify or include the qualifying expenditures incurred during the fiscal year on the SEFA. Recommendation: Develop policies and procedures to identify and reflect all federal programs on the SEFA, reconcile the federal expenditures to the federal program revenue on a routine basis, and formalize the independent review process for the SEFA and grant billings. Planned corrective action: See finding #2025-001. Responsible officer: See finding #2025-001. Estimated completion date: See finding #2025-001.

Noncompliance with Grant Reporting Frequency Requirements Auditor Description of Criteria, Condition, and Effect: Per the grant agreement for funds received from the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lake, and Energy ("EGLE") the Township is required to submit financial status reports on a monthly basis, but instead submitted their reports on a quarterly basis. The Township failed to file financial status reports as required by the Township's grant agreement with EGLE. As a result of this condition, the Township did not comply fully with the reporting requirements under this federal award. Auditor Recommendation: We recommend that the Township review its procedures for compiling financial data for external reporting purposes and develop a calendar by which grant managers and Township administration are notified of pending due dates. Financial reports should be supported by general ledger reports (which should be retained internally along with a copy of the report) and subjected to review and approval by an independent employee or administrator prior to submission. Corrective Action: The Township will strive to submit required reports to EGLE on a monthly basis as required. Expectation will be established via the grant calendar for this grant to be established as noted in finding 2025-001. Responsible Person: Karen Trombley, Accounting Coordinator Anticipated Completion Date: December 31, 2026

Failure to File Required Federal Financial Reports (SF-425) Auditor Description of Criteria, Condition, and Effect: Recipients of federal awards are required to report periodically on financial information, as specified by the 2 CFR 200 Compliance Supplement or grant agreement. Reported information should be supported by the entity’s accounting records and subjected to an independent review and approval prior to submission in order to detect and correct any errors or omissions. The Township failed to file the semi-annual SF-425 reports as required by the Township's grant agreement with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. As a result of this condition, the Township did not comply fully with the reporting requirements under this federal award. Auditor Recommendation: We recommend that the Township review its procedures for compiling financial data for external reporting purposes and develop a calendar by which grant managers and Township administration are notified of pending due dates. Financial reports should be supported by general ledger reports (which should be retained internally along with a copy of the report) and subjected to review and approval by an independent employee or administrator prior to submission. Corrective Action: We have notified the Department of Public Services, who has since had the SF-425’s that were not submitted filed with the EPA. Additionally, the Township’s finance department will produce a grant management calendar as recommended with all Township federal and state external reporting deadlines. Responsible Person: Karen Trombley, Accounting Coordinator Anticipated Completion Date: December 31, 2026

Management acknowledges the importance of cash management policies with regards to reimbursable programs. Day Kimball Healthcare is committed to full compliance with federal cash management requirements and takes seriously its obligation to request reimbursement only after program expenditures have been both incurred and paid. During fiscal year 2025, the employee responsible for previous reporting of these expenses retired, and the job function of submission and review of this grant passed on to other individuals. Management recognizes that our existing review process did not include a sufficient control step to verify payment status prior to submission of reimbursement requests, and employees have now been trained on proper procedure, which includes confirmation of payment of expenses before submission is allowed. In addition, the reviewer is now aware of this requirement and confirmation of payment is now a part of this individual’s responsibilities as well. Going forward into fiscal year 2026 Management believes these controls will prevent similar findings from occurring. Sheena Farner, Director of Budget & Financial Reporting, will oversee this corrective action plan to be fully implemented by September 30, 2026.
