Name of Auditee: City of Niagara Falls, New York Name of Audit Firm: EFPR Group, CPAs, PLLC Period Covered by the Audit: December 31, 2022 CAP Prepared by: Daniel Morello, City Controller Phone: (716) 286-4346 (A) Current Finding on the Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs and Recommendations (3) Finding 2022-003 Management's Response The City is in agreement with this audit finding.

Name of Auditee: City of Niagara Falls, New York Name of Audit Firm: EFPR Group, CPAs, PLLC Period Covered by the Audit: December 31, 2022 CAP Prepared by: Daniel Morello, City Controller Phone: (716) 286-4346 (A) Current Finding on the Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs and Recommendations (2) Finding 2022-002 Management's Response The City is in agreement with this audit finding. Due in part to delays in finalizing both the 2021-2022 annual action plan and the 2022-2023 annual action plan, the City was delayed in being able to utilize those funds until approval was provided by HUD. The City continues to direct funds to projects that have the ability to be completed in a timely manner in order to be consistent with the CDBG regulation related to timeliness. The City is aware of the timeliness requirements and will continue to select projects that better allow the City to operate in accordance with these regulations. Estimated Completion Date - Next HUD verification date of May 1, 2024

Student Financial Assistance - Cluster - Federal Pell Grant Program; Award ID No. P063P210331, 2021 - 2022 Federal Award Year Identifying Number: 2022-005 Audit Finding: The University was required, as a result of the Focused Program Review (OPE ID: 00301200) (FPR) regarding the University?s participation in the ?Pell for Students Who Are Incarcerated? experiment (Second Chance Pell), to complete a full file review (enrollment status, effective dates and reporting dates) of all National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) enrollment reporting for the 2019-20 and 2020-21 award years and update and correct errors identified. Corrective Actions Taken or Planned: Management concurs with the finding. The Registrar?s Office has performed a review of its policies and procedures and has revised them accordingly to ensure timely, accurate and complete submissions to the NSLDS. The determination of the review was that the enrollment effective status data field required correction in the NSLDS Enrollment History system. Since the restoration of the NSLDS system in November 2022, the Registrar?s Office has been correcting the data.

Student Financial Assistance - Cluster - Federal Pell Grant Program; Award ID No. P063P210331, 2021 - 2022 Federal Award Year Identifying Number: 2022-004 Audit Finding: The University did not have an established policy and procedure to ensure that the University consistently applied the regulations regarding payments of Pell if a student?s program crossed over an award year. Corrective Actions Taken or Planned: Management concurs with the finding. In April 2022 a formal policy and procedures addressing the awarding of the Pell Grant has been established to ensure compliance including staff training.

Student Financial Assistance - Cluster - Federal Pell Grant Program; Award ID No. P063P210331, 2021 - 2022 Federal Award Year Identifying Number: 2022-002 Audit Finding: As part of the audit for the 2021- 2022 Federal award year, Schneider Downs determined that the University used the same determination for the payment period for those students who had been awarded Pell grants that it had been using in the periods for which the U.S. Department of Education (ED) conducted the Focused Program Review (FPR). In addition to the population of students who are participating the Second Chance Pell program, the University also identified additional students, that when using ED?s interpretation of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), the University used a payment period that did not reflect enrollment in a nonstandard instructional term program. Corrective Actions Taken or Planned: Management does not concur with the criteria of this finding due to a disagreement with the interpretation of the regulations included in ED?s Final Program Review Determination (FPRD) and has appealed the finding as stated in the following paragraphs. Management followed the direction received from the ED Reviewers during the FPR exit interview on September 24, 2021, stating the University should not change its practice for the Second Chance Pell students enrolled in their respective instructional program nor the calculation using Formula 1 for the payment period until the Program Review Report (PRR) is received. The PRR was received on January 3, 2022, which was after the summer and fall 2021 semesters and just weeks prior to the start of the spring 2022 semester. Moreover, pursuant to the Higher Education Act ?498A(b), the University was entitled to an opportunity to review the PRR and within 60 days of receipt, submit a response for ED?s review prior to their preparing a final determination. The University submitted its response to the PRR on March 11, 2022. The University disagrees with the determinations in the FPRD and is vigorously defending itself against the ED interpretation of the regulations, the findings and the proposed financial assessments. The University filed an appeal of the findings and the associated financial assessments contained in the FPRD on October 24, 2022, and submitted a brief in support of the appeal on January 22, 2023, to the ED Office of Hearings and Appeals within the guidelines as prescribed by the Higher Education Act ? 487(b)(2) and U.S.C. ? 1094(b)(2). Effective with the fall 2022 semester term and each fall and spring terms thereafter, the Second Chance Pell students enrolled in their respective instructional programs have a fifteen (15) week standard instructional term and the payment period qualifies for calculations utilizing Pell Formula 1.

2022-010 ? Community Block Grant-State Administered Small Cities Program Recovery Fund The City has been relying on guidance from previous auditors who determined that Community Development Block Grants are awarded to the City, not the URA, and are therefore recorded on the City?s financial statements. The URA is only serving as a pass-through entity. As a result of this guidance, it has been the City?s understanding that the URA would not be required to report these grants on the PARIS report.

Finding 2022-001 - Lack of Segregation of Duties The District understands that this is a significant deficiency but feels it is not cost-effective at this time to hire additional employees to properly segregate duties. We feel that the oversight performed by the Superintendent and Board of Education over the financial statement activity and reports of the District is adequate to help mitigate the lack of segregation of duties. We believe it would be inefficient and cost prohibitive to hire the additional employees needed to properly segregate duties so at this time we do not plan on making any changes. However, we will continue to monitor this situation and periodically determine if it is cost-effective for us to properly segregate duties.

FINDING 2022-003 ? Special Tests and Provisions ? Disbursements: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control Over Compliance Condition/context: For one undergraduate student selected, federal student aid was disbursed, creating a credit balance that should have been refunded to the student within the 14-day requirement. Cause: Due to turnover in the position responsible for monitoring credit balances and disbursement date compliance requirements, individuals performing the responsibility could not perform the task according to the required timeframes. - Corrective Action Plan: Due to significant turnover in the Financial Aid Office, management has outsourced its financial aid function to a third party.

It also enables the financial aid function to communicate effectively with the accounting office and ensure disbursements and refunds are processed timely and in accordance with the Department of Education rules and regulations. Responsible person: Sarah Stooksberry / Cindy Farrington Planned completion date: Completed as of the date of this letter.
