Requirement: Per the requirements contained in 24 CFR Part 982, property owners must perform housing quality inspections at the time of initial occupancy and at least annually thereafter to ensure that the units are decent, safe, and sanitary. Finding: Out of 12 units selected for testing, 2 units did not have documentation supporting that a housing quality standards inspection was completed during 2023. Recommendation: CRH should implement the necessary internal controls to ensure annual inspections are performed and documented. Comments Community Roots Housing agrees with this finding and recommendation. Corrective Action Plan Community Roots Housing maintains detailed listings of annual inspection work orders, including unit numbers and when they were finished. This listing is prepared by the maintenance department. An additional control will be added to include secondary review and oversight by the Director of Property Management. This review will occur quarterly, starting in the with the second quarter of 2024, to ensure that all inspections are completed before the end of 2024, and annually thereafter. The Director of Maintenance and the Director of Property Management will be responsible for ensuring these tasks are carried out.

2023-003 Finding - Federal Award - Significant Deficiency - Reporting US Department ofCommerceAL#11.611 Context and Cause - The Organization was not made aware by grants, CMTC or prior auditors that the final upload package of the federal reports and requests for reimbursement should have internal control oversight procedures and did not exercise such oversight. Only one individual was responsible for preparing and filing these final documents after such details were reviewed individually throughout the month by other individuals responsible for that review. The payroll time sheet review process was consistently followed, however, and there is not a process for the final processed payroll rep01ts to be reviewed by a second individual.Recommendation: We recommend management implement procedures to ensure the Uniform Grant Guidance and the Compliance Supplement requirements for controls over Reporting, Allowable Costs, and Cash Management are designed and performed. The month end checklist currently being used is a good start, and this could be enhanced by adding sections for the above items, and having specific individuals' initial and date on the checklist when the procedures are completed. A fiscal policy and procedure manual would also be a good tool. Action Taken: Manex will update fiscal Policy to include oversight on reporting to funders

SRC has already partially implemented corrective action related to this finding as presented in the CAS non-compliance issued by DCAA and the Administrative Contracting Officer. SRC provided a detailed response to the Administrative Contracting Officer in a letter dated March 21, 2024. For the useful life finding, SRC is in the fourth year of an anticipated five-year period to verify the existence of tangible assets. This review includes validation of the status of active tangible assets as well as those withdrawn from active use to identify differences between physical life and depreciable life. Once this is complete SRC will update our policies and procedures to incorporate the process of periodically analyzing and reviewing our useful life matrix to determine whether useful lives are valid or if adjustments are required. SRC provides additional training to employees responsible for capital. SRC’s policy states that residual value will be recognized consistent with FAR 31.205-11 which states, “for tangible personal property, only estimated residual values that exceed ten percent of the capitalized cost of the asset need be used in establishing depreciable costs”. SRC’s capital asset policy and Disclosure Statement do not set a standard ten percent residual value. SRC demonstrated that there have been no instances of salvage value of any amount recovered at tangible asset disposition. SRC agrees the system defaults to zero percent salvage value but disagrees this is indicative of a deficiency as the system provides for the flexibility to adjust the salvage value to the appropriate amount, as applicable. The overstated depreciation expense for the land costs were credited in the FY 2023 incurred cost submission. SRC’s disclosure statement was updated effective October 1, 2023 to include the clerical edits needed to clarify overhead rate application to self-constructed assets. Remaining outstanding corrective action, which entails reviews of our policies and procedures will take place by September 30, 2025. Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Lisa Kennedy, Director, Corporate Controller Completion Date: All corrective action will be implemented by September 30, 2025.
