CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN Oversight Agency for Audit: U.S. Department of Elementary and Secondary Education The City of Taunton, Massachusetts respectfully submits the following corrective action plan for the year ended June 30, 2023. Name and address of independent public accounting firm: Powers & Sullivan, LLC 100 Quannapowitt Parkway, Suite 101 Wakefield, MA 01880 Audit period: July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2023 The finding from the June 30, 2023, schedule of findings and questioned costs is discussed below. The finding is numbered consistently with the number assigned in the schedule. FINDINGS—FEDERAL AWARD PROGRAMS AUDITS U.S. DEPARTMENT OF TREASURY COVID-19 - Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds Federal Assistance Listing Number 21.027 2023-001: Reporting to the Federal Government Compliance Requirement: Reporting Type of Finding: Compliance and Internal Control over Compliance – Other Matter Criteria or Specific Requirement: Grantees must comply with reporting requirements established by the U.S. Treasury that includes reporting the total grant expenditures incurred for the reporting period. Since the City is a Metropolitan City with a population below 250,000 residents that was allocated more than $10.0 million in funding, the City is required to submit, to the U.S. Department of Treasury, a project and expenditure report 30 days after the end of each quarter. The City is also required to submit quarterly reports to Bristol County no later than 15 days following the end of each fiscal quarter. Condition: The City submitted the quarterly project and expenditure report timely, however the expenditures reported as of June 30, 2023, did not reconcile with the City’s accounting ledger. Similarly, while the City submitted quarterly reports to the County timely, expenditures reported as of June 30, 2023, did not reconcile with the City’s accounting ledger. Questioned Costs: None Reported. Context: The City filed the required project and expenditure report in a timely manner, however the report submitted to the U.S. Treasury’s Portal did not reconcile with City’s accounting ledger. Similarly, the City filed the required quarterly reports to Bristol County in a timely manner, however the report submitted did not reconcile with the City’s ledger. Effect: The expenditures reported on the City’s project and expenditure report and County report were not accurate. Cause: The City did not have adequate controls in place to reconcile expenditures submitted on the project and expenditure and County reports with the City’s ledger. Recommendation: Management should implement procedures to ensure that all expenditures that are incurred in a particular reporting period are included on the applicable project and expenditure report. Additionally, the City should ensure that the omitted expenditures are reported in the next reporting submission. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Management made a good faith effort to correctly report its expenditures to the U.S. Treasury Department and Bristol County on an accurate and timely basis. Reconciliation between the reporting and accounting ledger must be completed to ensure expenditures reported are accurate. Management expects to correct this on the subsequent period’s reporting in fiscal 2024. If the Oversight Agency has questions regarding this plan, please call Patrick D. Dello Russo Jr., Chief Financial Officer at (508)-821-1000. Sincerely yours, Patrick D. Dello Russo Jr Chief Financial Officer City of Taunton, Massachusetts

The District corrected the issue late in the stated audit period. The District will continue to ensure all applicable contracts include not just the term “prevailing wage” but specify “Federal Wage Rate Compliance” to comply with the applicable CFR. The District will also continue to verify payrolls have been submitted by the contractor before issuing progress payments. Finally, the District will continue to retain documentation of this confirmation for audit. The District disagrees with the statement that, during the audit, the District subsequently collected all weekly certified payrolls. The District uses the Washington State Department of Labor and Industries prevailing wage system as the tool for all contractors to submit their weekly certified payrolls to the District. All weekly certified payrolls were submitted into the L&I system before the audit began and immediately provided to the audit team upon request.

Identifying Number: 2023-001 Finding: The Organization is required to reach a minimum units of service requirement. The Organization was unable to meet the minimum deliverables required. The Organization did not have written communication waiving the requirement. Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Rodrigo Sanchez-Camus, Director of Legal, Organizing, and Advocacy; Maria Lizardo, Executive Director. Corrective Actions Taken or Planned: NMIC has the necessary controls in place to ensure that all cases are properly counted toward contract deliverables. However, NMIC was again unable fulfill the deliverable requirements for this contract in FY2023. This follows a similar finding in FY2022. Despite this, the City paid out the entirety of the funding for FY2022 and 2023, and has not indicated they will attempt to claw back funds due to non-performance. NMIC leadership has been actively and regularly engaged with the Human Resources Administration (HRA), and relevant City and State agencies, regarding the challenges all right to council providers, including NMIC, face in meeting contract expectations. NMIC has also worked with other citywide providers to draft a Concept Paper outlining issues with grant structure, and offering suggestions for remediation in future renewal discussions. This was shared and discussed with HRA in March 2023. HRA has since issued a new RFP, and awarded NMIC a 3 year grant beginning FY2025. While this provides for more achievable goals, we expect to show similar findings in FY2024. And potentially, but to a lesser degree, in FY2025-2027. Anticipated Completion Date: May 2025
