Finding 2023-004 Procurement and Suspension and Debarment – Internal Control and Compliance over Suspension and Debarment City will incorporate the Uniform Guidance requirements into its existing grant policies and procedures to ensure the City is in compliance with the Uniform Guidance. City staff will access SAM.Gov to check for possible party ineligibility following receipts of an offer or proposal and again, immediately before making the award. For every CIP project that is advertised for bids, the Engineering Division’s is currently preparing a detailed analysis of the bid amounts received that includes a check of the low-bid contractor’s license, insurance, and references prior to the award of contract. In addition, staff verifies that neither the contractor nor any of its key personnel appear on the Federal or State debarment lists. All of this documentation is then typically compiled in the project file in both hardcopy and electronically. However, to ensure consistency that all pre- and post-construction documentation is properly filed for each project, staff will utilize a project checklist modeled after Caltrans’ “Exhibit 19 - Construction Review Checklist” from its Local Assistance Program Manual as applicable.

The Housing Authority’s strategy to address the backlog of biennial inspections is to scale our inspection capacity and develop a sustainable inspections plan for normal operations. We have steadily increased EHA staffing bandwidth for housing inspections since June of 2022, as follows: • We started the process on 6/29/2022 to replace our Housing Inspector that left EHA 5/04/2022. The person that filled this Housing Inspector position started at EHA on 1/05/2023, completed training and began taking on an inspection workload in February 2023. • In March 2023, twenty-five (25) staff in EHA’s Housing Management Department attended an HQS inspections training. EHA Housing Management staff began completing initial and annual HQS inspections at EHA PBV properties on 7/01/2023. • EHA budgeted for a second Housing Inspector position in EHA’s FYE2023 budget. We started the process to hire the second Housing Inspector on 7/13/2023. The person that filled this second Housing Inspector position started at EHA on 9/19/2023, completed training and began taking on an inspection workload at the end of October 2023. • EHA budgeted for an Inspections Coordinator position in EHA’s FYE2023 budget. We started the process to hire the Inspections Coordinator on 8/14/2023. The person that filled the Inspections Coordinator position started on 11/06/2023. • On 10/30/2023, EHA’s Executive Director decided to add a third Housing Inspector to the EHA inspections team to assist with the backlog of biennial inspections. We started the process to hire the third Housing Inspector on 10/31/2023. The person that filled this third Housing Inspector position started in the position on 1/16/2024, completed training and began taking on an inspection workload in February 2024. • On 2/23/2024, an HCV Manager was appointed to supervise the inspections team (three Housing Inspectors and one Inspections Coordinator), to provide increased oversight over EHA’s inspections workload. The HCV Manager is responsible for monitoring progress towards addressing the biennial inspections backlog, delegating inspections workload to the inspections team, and providing guidance and support to the inspections team. The HCV Manager meets with the inspections team on a weekly basis as well as conducts individual check-ins with all inspections team members. Our increased inspections capacity has allowed us to make significant progress on addressing the pandemic-caused backlog of biennial inspections. Based on our expanded internal staffing resources, we expect to complete all late biennial inspections by 12/31/2024.

Action Taken: The Board’s Youth Liaison monitors the In School and Out of School Youth eligibility every six months following the policy and procedures referencing the CF200. The Board’s Youth Liaison reviews the Youth files to determine if the Youth meets the eligibility criteria for the Youth program. Her monitoring is reviewed every six months during the State Audit. The Board will review her monitoring along with copies of the completed registrations from the Board’s subrecipient which determines which program the youth (Youth In or Youth Out) is eligible for the fiscal year. The Board will state that they have reviewed the eligibility perimeters and these were followed by the subrecipient and verified by the Youth Liaison. For the Adult Program, the Board has implemented internal controls to ensure each applicant completes the applications and to determine if they are eligible for the programs the Board offers. Our Business Services Manager reviews each application taken by the Board’s Career Services Coordinator and ensures they are in the correct program by the application.
