FINDING 2023-003 – Reporting: Significant Deficiency over Internal Controls over Compliance Condition/context – In a representative sample of monthly, quarterly, and annual reports due during the year ended December 31, 2023, auditors noted six of the six tested annual financial reports (SF-425) did not agree to the underlying profit and loss detail from the Organization’s General Ledger(s) for the related grants. In addition, the certified authorized official was not an employee of the Organization and there was a lack of documentation for how the certifying official was deemed appropriate. In the sample quarterly reports, the Organization had contradicting responses related to whether reimbursement requests reflect actual spending of designated Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF) funding. Corrective Action Plan: • Internal Controls are being evaluated and addressed with the Board of Directors on clarity of Financial Policy and Procedures • Implement a formal reconciliation process to ensure all grant financial reports agree to the underlying general ledger and profit and loss statements. • Establish a documented policy identifying employees authorized to certify grant reports, ensuring these individuals are employees of the Organization and appropriately trained. • Conduct regular training and internal reviews to confirm consistent understanding of grant-specific reporting requirements, particularly those related to reimbursement-based funding such as SSVF. • Develop a standard operating procedure (SOP) for reviewing and approving financial reports before submission to funders. Prior to sending to funder/portal. Must have reconciliation to numbers prior to next period reporting. • Site Review of reporting will have oversight of Financial Dept and reconciliation communication.

Corrective Action Plan: The Utility Commission General Manager or Communications System Supervisor will review the quarterly progress reports prepared by someone else.

2023-005 Compliance and Internal Controls over Program Income (Significant Deficiency) U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development 14.267 – Continuum of Care Program 2023 Funding Recommendation: The Organization should establish procedures to ensure that controls related to program income are consistently implemented. In addition, documentation should be included in each participant's files to support income calculations and the participant's share of rent payable to the program. Corrective Action: We would like to clarify our approach to income documentation within client files: 1. Income Documentation: While not all clients have income, we will ensure that clients without income provide a zero-income affidavit (also known as a non-income affidavit) to document their status. 2. Stabilized Case Management: Our current case managers have been with Temenos CDC (TCDC) for over a year, providing stability and experience in verifying client income. 3. Policy and Procedure Updates: Recent updates to our policies and procedures have introduced standardized forms that clearly differentiate between households with income and those without. 1. Households with income will include the mandatory TCDC income calculation sheet. 2. Households without income will be required to submit the zero-income affidavit. 4. File Checklists: We have created file checklists to ensure uniformity across all client files, enhancing our documentation process. 5. Annual Audits: All client files will be audited by a supervisor at least once a year to ensure compliance with our policies. 6. HMIS Training: Case managers are required to complete mandatory HMIS training, which supports effective compliance in file management and income verification. These measures are designed to strengthen our documentation practices and ensure compliance with audit requirements.

2023-002 Compliance and Internal Controls over Procurement (Material Weakness and Noncompliance) U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development 14.267 – Continuum of Care Program 2023 Funding Recommendation: The Organization should establish procedures to ensure that controls related to procurement are consistently implemented and that all written records are maintained to support that the compliance requirement is met. Corrective Action: In alignment with the recent leadership transition, a comprehensive policy and procedure manual has been established to ensure our procurement practices meet HUD guidelines. The following outlines our updated procurement policy: 1. Compliance with Standards: All procurement of property (goods, supplies, or equipment) and services must adhere to the standards of conduct and conflict-of-interest requirements outlined in 2 CFR 200.317 and 200.318. 2. Micro Purchases (Under $9,999): Temenos CDC (TCDC) will document the reasonableness of costs for all micro purchases to ensure appropriate spending practices. 3. Small Purchases ($10,000 and above): For small purchases exceeding $10,000, TCDC will solicit a minimum of three bids for services to promote competitive pricing. 4. Vendor Vetting: 1. All new vendors will be vetted through the SAM (System for Award Management) Department prior to the initiation of services. 2. Continuous service providers will be subject to an annual vetting process to ensure ongoing compliance and quality. These measures are designed to reinforce our commitment to transparency, accountability, and compliance with HUD requirements. Responsible Parties: Sandra Robicheaux - Executive Director Madelyn Wages – Director of Supportive Services Ramona Edwards – Property Manager Date to be Corrected: Implementation for above changes went into effect 6/01/2024

CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN FOR FINDINGS REPORTED UNDER UNIFORM GUIDANCE Town of Malden January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023 This schedule presents the corrective action the Town is planning to take for findings included in this report in accordance with Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Finding ref number: 2023-002 Finding caption: The Town did not have adequate internal controls and did not comply with federal wage rate requirements. Name, address, and telephone of Town contact person: Dan Harwood, Mayor PO Box 248, Malden, Washington 99149 (509) 569-3771 Corrective action the auditee plans to take in response to the finding: We agree with the SAO staff as far as the Town staff being new to federal grants and the requirements of recordkeeping associated with it. It is obvious that the Town staff can not handle the workload of administering all the grants that the town has obtained since the 2020 Babb Road Fire. We are in the process of contracting an outside party that will handle most of the current grants. The Town staff thought they processed all the certified payroll information that was received. We were surprised that there were some missing. The State Department of Commerce has been working with the staff on making sure that the certified payroll process was complete. With any future grants we will make sure that Town staff will pursue training on Certified Payroll to make sure all papers are received. Anticipated date to complete the corrective action: These actions will be done when we receive future federal grants.
The City will work to ensure all reports for grant funding are completed.

Response to finding 2023-004 – Subrecipient Monitoring Views of Responsible Officials: CSforALL management agrees with the conditions identified by SAX Advisory Group, including the noted causes and resulting effects under 2023-004. Due to the organizational pause at the end of 2024 and the transition period throughout 2025, the Organization had limited capacity to maintain formalized subrecipient monitoring procedures aligned with 2 CFR 200.332. As CSforALL prepares for the 2026 rebuilding phase, management is establishing structured policies and procedures to ensure full compliance with federal subrecipient monitoring requirements. Corrective Action taken in 2025: During 2025, the Operations Manager ensured that all subrecipients associated with the current Alliance grant have signed or will sign formal Statements of Work with explicit deliverables and expectations required for payment. External parties without a Statement of Work are now required to submit proper documentation, invoicing, and proof of deliverables before any funds are released. No payments have been made to participants under the FY 2025 Alliance grant to date, as CSforALL is ensuring that all required policies and procedures are in place prior to both drawing down and paying out funds. Weekly and quarterly meetings have been established with external partners responsible for deliverables to confirm timelines, verify progress, and ensure alignment with payment expectations. Corrective Action Planned for 2026: Beginning in 2026, CSforALL will formalize subrecipient monitoring policies aligned with 2 CFR 200.332, including risk assessments for all subrecipients, review and documentation of Single Audit reports where applicable, issuance of management decisions, and structured ongoing monitoring activities. All monitoring documentation will be maintained in a centralized, accessible system to ensure consistent compliance throughout the 2026 operating year and beyond.
