Condition: During the year ended June 30, 2023, the Organization had 5 withdrawals from the replacement reserve totaling $150,316. Of these withdrawals, $71,998 was properly supported and $78,318 was withdrawn without proper HUD approval. The lack of timely reconciliations resulted in unauthorized amounts transferred out of the replacement reserve and the funds were not returned to the replacement reserve account by June 30, 2023.
Planned Corrective Action: Management acknowledges the significant deficiency in internal control over compliance since it did not obtain prior HUD approval for 3 withdrawals totaling $78,318 during the year ended June 30, 2023 and is implementing measures to improve this internal control over compliance. Management returned the $78,318 to the replacement reserve account in August 2023.
Contact person responsible for corrective action: Bruce Blalock, Sr. VP of Finance and Obligated Group Operations
Anticipated Completion Date: August 2, 2023
