2024-007 Untimely Submission of Project and Expenditure Report: Management acknowledges the finding related to the untimely submission of the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Project and Expenditure Report. To address this issue and prevent future occurrences, the City is implementing an ARPA reporting process that clearly defines reporting requirements, deadlines, and responsible personnel, along with a centralized compliance calendar to track all federal grant reporting deadlines and provide reminders to ensure timely submission. Primary responsibility for ARPA reporting has been assigned to designated Finance Department staff, with supervisory review by senior management to ensure reports are complete, accurate, and submitted on time. In addition, Finance staff have received training on federal and ARPA specific reporting requirements, and cross-training will be implemented to ensure continuity in the event of staff absences or turnover. Management will continue to monitor compliance with federal reporting requirements and update internal controls as necessary.

Finding 2024-002: (Significant Deficiency) AL# 21.027: COVID-19 – Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds, U.S. Department of Treasury Condition: The City’s control procedures for the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (CSLFRF) requires the department personnel to authorize payment and the program manager to certify the expenditures to the CSLFRF program prior to being paid. The program manager did not approve four invoices prior to the expenditure being charged to the grant. Criteria or Specific Requirement: 2 CFR 200.303, the Non-Federal entity must establish and maintain effective internal controls over federal awards to ensure compliance with federal statutes, regulations and the terms and conditions of the awards. Cause: Purchase orders are created that identify projects that are part of the CSLFRF and expenditures coding is assigned at that time prior to the purchase. Once the invoice was approved by department personnel, the expenditures were applied to the assigned purchase order coding. Effect: Failure to follow established internal controls increases the risk of noncompliance with the grant requirements and processing unallowable costs towards the grant. Corrective Plan: To address the underlying issues identified in the audit finding, the City will implement the following steps: 1.Correct Approval Control GapInternal Audit worked with Accounts Payable and department personnel and made recommendations tocorrect the control gap and ensure compliance with approval procedures. It is anticipated theserecommendations will be implemented in the next two months. Additional review steps were added inaccounts payable to ensure required approvals obtained prior to payment processing. 2.Implement Monitoring ReportAccounting services developed a report to verify approvals and provide secondary oversight for CSLFRFexpenditures. These actions will be implemented and monitored to ensure compliance with grant requirements. Alex Fedak, CPA 1/7/26 Date Controller

Audit Finding Reference: 2024-002 – Head Start Cluster – ALN #93.600 Planned Corrective Action: Finance personnel who are responsible for management of Federal grants have undergone targeted training around Uniform Guidance requirements with respect to grants management and sub-recipient compliance. UWGNH also maintains an active registration in the System for Award Management (SAM). Finance personnel have recently been trained on the procedure for submitting FFATA reporting in SAM.gov and are clear on the requirements. They are aware of the requirement to report subawards of more than $30,000 from federal funds. This task has been added to the internal accounting close checklist and will be completed during any period where sub-awards have been executed. The CFO will oversee the implementation of these corrective actions and monitor ongoing compliance.
