FINDING 2022-004 Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: George ann Ewald, Director of Finance & HR Contact Phone Number: (574) 277-4452 Views of Responsible Official: We concur with the finding. Description of Corrective Action Plan: The Director of Finance & HR will expand Fund 8700 to include adding line items for all allowable reimbursement costs associated with each firefighter position covered by the 2019 Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response (SAFER) federal grant. The Director of Finance & HR will ensure that all funds used to compensate each covered firefighter position will be paid entirely out of Fund 8700, only. This action will result in a negative value for Fund 8700 until which time the fund is reimbursed the allowable costs under the provisions of the federal grant. The Director of Finance & HR will generate a report for each reimbursement request, which will be limited to include only the payroll dates of the period for which the request is being submitted. The Fire Chief will review and confirm that all associated costs have been withdrawn from Fund 8700. The Fire Chief will then direct the Assistant Fire Chief to complete the reimbursement request via the FEMA GO website. Once the reimbursement request has been submitted, the Assistant Fire Chief will print the completed reimbursement request documents and obtain signatures from each of the following individuals: 1. Prepared By: (NAME), Director of Finance & HR 2. Reviewed & Approved By: (NAME), Fire Chief 3. Submitted By: (NAME), Assistant Fire Chief Anticipated Completion Date: ? Implementation: June 2023
