The district believes the initial Title I – Low Income grant expenditure report was submitted timely following initial approval on 1/9/23 with the first expenditure report submitted on 1/17/23 and approved by ISBE on 1/18/23. No 9/30/22 expenditure report was available to submit following the 1st quarter of FY23 because it was not approved at that time. Backup documentation of this is on record and available upon request. IDEA Pre-K and IDEA Flow Through grant expenditure submissions for 9/30/22 were legitimately submitted late due to turnover and transition in the District Bookkeeping position at that time. Careful monitoring of expenditure report due dates has been implemented using the following procedures to ensuring timely report submission: District Bookkeeper has created an electronic (google) calendar reminders/tasks on the 1st, 5th, 10th, 15th, and 19th days of the month following the end of each quarter regarding the completion of grant expenditure reporting. At the beginning of the month following the end of a quarter the District Bookkeeper prints the list of required grant expenditure reports from the FRIS website to track and ensure that all grant reports are completed. The goal is to have all expenditure reports to the District Superintendent by the 15th of the month for review, approval, and submission to ISBE ahead of the 20th of the month. As the reports are submitted for district review/approval and ISBE review/approval, the District Bookkeeper keeps electronic and printed record of each grant submission and approval.

Historically, the Housing Authority obligated funds as they became available on a monthly basis, based on the five-year plan approved by HUD. The Housing Authority was not aware that drawdowns of Capital funds for operating, and construction costs have to be obligated when the expense is incurred, or a contract entered into. This was corrected as of February 2024; however, CFP 2023 had already been fully obligated. The Housing Authority will implement this new procedure with the issuance of the 2024 CFP grant. The Housing Authority has put a process in place to make sure the operating funds are obligated in LOCCs only after a contract is executed and expenses have been incurred as part of our monthly procedures. The Comptroller, Jennifer Yager, will oversee this under the guidance of the CFO Consultant and the Capital Project Manager. This will be implemented with the issuance of CFP 24. Jennifer can be reached at 203-596-2640.
