Walla Walla County is taking significant steps to address the recent audit finding regarding inadequate internal controls for compliance with federal requirements. Development of a New Policy To rectify this issue, the county is committed to formulating a new policy specifically tailored to meet federal standards. This development process is already in motion, with the expected completion date set for December 2025. Enhancing Internal Controls We believe that the new policy will significantly improve our internal controls and ensure full compliance with federal mandates. Training Initiatives Additionally, we will seek training opportunities to increase the knowledge of all staff regarding federal programs and compliance requirements, ensuring adherence to these programs and grants.

Walla Walla County employs a decentralized purchasing model. We have implemented training for departments using federally regulated funds to comply with suspension and debarment requirements. Internal controls and processes will be created and/or updated to comply with Federal Suspension and Debarment requirements and dispersed to all Departments of the County. The updated procurement policy as mentioned in the corrective action in the Management letter will outline how to handle and follow these requirements. The County will determine which allowable action to be taken in our Internal controls and Procurement policy: 1) check SAM.GOV, 2) make sure the clause is in the contract, 3) sign a suspension and debarment certification. Documentation will be saved and dated to show this requirement was met before the contract has begun.

Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action — Grace House has created and will implement the following new controls: a) Every reimbursement request made by any employee will require approval from the Executive Director, Assistant Director, or board of directors vote where appropriate. b) For rental invoices, the immediate supervisor must approve all rental invoices for payment processing before being submitted to the administrative office. If the immediate supervisor is absent, the invoice must be approved by the Executive Director or Assistant Director. c) When a new client invoice is submitted for approval for an existing approved landlord, the invoice along with the traditional client identifying information will be reviewed by both the immediate supervisor and the Executive Director. d) When a new client invoice is submitted for approval for a new landlord, the invoice will be reviewed by both the immediate supervisor and the Executive Director. Each invoice requires a W9 form to validate the legal name, property records verifying ownership matching the legal name on the W9, a picture ID of the individual listed on the W9, and a copy of the agreement if a property management company is listed on the W9 instead of an individual. e) All new clients and landlords will be researched through an investigative software to prove there is no evidence of false identity. f) Grace House has contracted an independent certified fraud investigator to conduct periodic reviews for compliance with fraud prevention policies at least semiannually but beginning quarterly through 2025.

United States Department of Education Student Financial Aid Cluster – Assistance Listing No. 84.063 Condition: During our audit procedures, we noted that the 1 student withdrawal did not have a return to Title IV calculation completed timely as the student officially withdrew 8/29/23 and the calculation was not completed until 3/24/25.

Personnel Responsible for Corrective Action: Dr. Shelley Kneuvean Chief Financial Officer Unified Government of Wyandotte County & Kansas City, Kansas Anticipated Completion Date: November 1, 2025 Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: The debarment check was not done with an updated contract for 2024. The 2025 contract renewal and debarment check are being finalized now. Purchasing reviews suspension/debarment checks for procurement over $50,000, but since this was a community partner agreement it was done separately from that process. Departments have now been trained this is required for contracts acquired through purchasing as well as partner agreements.

Personnel Responsible for Corrective Action: Dr. Shelley Kneuvean Chief Financial Officer Unified Government of Wyandotte County & Kansas City, Kansas Anticipated Completion Date: July 1, 2025 Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: Unfortunately, due to the late completion of the 2023 Single Audit and the hiring of the grants position in early 2025, many previous findings and contracts were not yet corrected in 2024. In the event of this finding, there were two vendors which had minimal expenditures in 2024 (under $5,000 which does not require competitive bids but in aggregate they exceeded that amount). The procurement department had not been consulted, and debarment checks were not completed when the work began in 2023, and final payments were issued in 2024. In the Grants Manual and training departments have been instructed that these procedures must be complied with for all grants.
