Recommendation We recommend that Management enhance its internal control structure, to include milestones for submitting the Single Audit Reporting Package.

The District acknowledges the failure to submit the Single Audit data collection form for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within the required 30-day post-opinion deadline. The form was never submitted for that fiscal year. Additionally, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, the District’s accounting records were not available until March 2026, causing the audit to extend well beyond the required nine-month completion deadline and resulting in further noncompliance with Single Audit reporting requirements. Current management has improved procedures related to the management of Single Audit compliance obligations. The District, in coordination with the third-party accounting firm and the external auditor, has established a compliance calendar that identifies all Single Audit submission deadlines and assigns responsibility for preparation, certification, and submission of the data collection form. Procedures have been implemented to ensure accounting records are available on a timely basis to support completion of the audit within the required nine-month window, starting with the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. We plan to ensure that the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 data collection form is submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse and that the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 Single Audit is completed and submitted within 30 days of the audit opinion date, and that all future Single Audit data collection forms are submitted in a timely manner. Estimated date of implementation of the corrective action plan: Ongoing Person responsible for implementation of the corrective action plan: Dr. Kirk Henwood

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

Controls Over Reporting for SMT Program Management acknowledges that encounter notes were not entered on a timely basis and that an inactive participant remained on the program listing during the audit period. The Organization will implement a supervisory review process requiring that encounter notes are entered within a defined timeframe following each program interaction and reviewed by a supervisor for completeness and accuracy. The participant listing will be reconciled monthly to ensure that inactive individuals are promptly flagged and removed. Monthly reports will be documented as reviewed and dated at the time of submission to maintain an auditable record of timely reporting. This process has already taken place in late 2025 and the CFO and Controller will oversee the process.

Controls Over Federal Programs Management acknowledges that documented control procedures were absent across all selections tested for federal expenditures, and that payroll allocations were not consistently reviewed or supported throughout the year. The Organization will require that all invoices coded to federal award programs include documentation of review, proper allocation rationale, and management approval before payment is processed. Payroll allocations will be updated in both the payroll and accounting systems on a regular basis, supported by actual time records or documented time studies rather than year-end estimates. This process has already taken place in late 2025 and the CFO and Controller will oversee the process.

Vaccine Education Grant Reporting Management acknowledges the repeat finding that quarterly reports required under the NYS OMH Vaccine Education Block Grant were not submitted as required by the contract. The Organization will designate a staff member responsible for tracking all grant reporting deadlines and will implement a reporting calendar that captures submission requirements for each active grant contract. Grant contracts will be reviewed in full prior to execution so that all reporting obligations are understood and built into operational workflows. Management will also establish an internal review and approval process for all grant reports prior to submission to ensure completeness and timeliness. This will be overseen by the Controller in FY26.

The Organization is implementing procedures to ensure timely preparation of audit documentation and earlier engagement of the audit firm so that the Single Audit can be completed within required federal deadlines. A revised internal timeline has been established for closing the fiscal year, preparing federal award schedules, and submitting materials to the auditors. Management will monitor compliance with these deadlines to ensure timely submission of the Single Audit package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse going forward.

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.

Management Response / Corrective Action: The City acknowledges the finding. Federal reporting deadlines will be incorporated into the City's annual compliance calendar, and management will coordinate earlier completion of audit deliverables and required submissions. For the FY2024 Single Audit reporting package, the City will complete the Data Collection Form and Federal Audit Clearinghouse submission upon final issuance/receipt of the auditor's reports and retain evidence of submission. For future single audits, the City will monitor the Uniform Guidance deadline and submit the Data Collection Form and reporting package by the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor's reports or nine months after year-end.
The City acknowledges the finding. The City will strengthen procedures to identify, track, reconcile, and report federal award activity throughout the fiscal year so that a complete and accurate SEFA can be prepared in a timely manner for future audit periods.

Organization Response: Management acknowledges the auditors’ comments, with the clarification below, and has taken the actions listed below. The overstatement noted in this finding was a misstatement. The omission noted in this finding references funds received from state and county agencies. Therefore, the funds were recorded consistent with the information and documentation provided by the pass-through entity (Cascade County) which did not clearly identify the original funding source as the federal entity. To ensure internal controls over funding sources and expense reporting, the grant award and processing policy has been reviewed and updated to include due diligence of original funding sources.
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 21.01...
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.

To improve the timeliness and accuracy of our quarterly and semi-annual reporting, Cayuga Centers has aligned reporting deadlines with internal reconciliation schedules. A reporting coordinator will be appointed to oversee submissions and ensure accuracy. Monthly reconciliations of qualifying costs and cash draws will support this process, and a reporting calendar with automated reminders will be implemented to keep all stakeholders on track.
This finding is, in part, due to a gap in adequate personnel and oversight within the Finance Department for a brief period of time.

Further, Cayuga Centers has engaged grants management advisors who will assist in evaluating the scope of this asserted finding in conjunction with Finding 2024-005 to ensure any perceived deficiencies are addressed to the satisfaction of Cayuga Centers’ primary federal funder. The new Finance Team leadership have reinstated use of the class system in our general ledger to allocate direct costs to specific programs and clearly separate non-reimbursable expenses. Monthly reconciliations will be performed to ensure qualifying costs align with cash draw requests. Accounting staff have or will receive targeted training on cost allocation principles and documentation standards to support this effort.
