Rehabilitation for Survivors of Torture in Minnesota/Ethnic Community Self- Help Program; Refugee and Entrant Assistance – Assistance Listing No. 93.576 Recommendation: Auditor recommends that ACS review all participant files to ensure proper documentation is retained supporting the eligibility of applicants. We noted that there is currently a process in place to review files to ensure that only eligible participants are being served, but we recommend that a process is implemented and documented to ensure that there is proper review and approval of all applicants prior to the individual receiving services and that this review is retained. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: This will be grant dependent as many of the grant's ACS has the grantors retain the documentation and do a secondary review of eligibility. The Self-Help grant is a grant that is direct to the organization, and two people will review and document on the participation form they have reviewed the eligibility of the participants. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Nasreen Sajady Planned completion date for corrective action plan: This will begin September 2025 and continue for the remainder of the programs needing a secondary review.

U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development – CFDA 14.228 Condition: The County charged payroll costs using an internal allocation method that included salaries, benefits, and supplies, rather than actual expenditures. This method was not supported by an approved cost allocation plan. Additionally, the hours charged were based on total grant administration time, not specific to the CDBG program. Recommendation: The County should ensure that all costs charged to federal programs are based on actual expenditures or an approved cost allocation plan. Documentation should be maintained to support all reported costs, and internal controls should be strengthened to prevent reliance on unsupported methodologies. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action planned in response to finding: The County will not be applying for any CDBG grants in the future unless there is adequate administrative cost allocation in the grant. The County will continue to make every effort to adequately close out CDBG grants and provide reports to the granting organization as staff and priorities allow. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Under direction of the County Administrative Officer, the Senior Financial Analyst Suzie Hawkins Planned completion date for corrective action plan: Completed and on-going

Federal program title - Highway Planning and Construction Program – CFDA 20.205 Recommendation: We recommend that management enhance the procurement controls to ensure that all required parties are reviewed for suspension and debarment prior to entering the transaction. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: Locally well-known and established area contractors had not always been checked for Debarment and Suspension verification. Contractors that the Department had not previously worked with were typically verified. All construction contracts entered into with the Trinity County Department of Transportation include a “Debarment and Suspension Certification” form (example attached), which requires signature of the contractor stating that they are not Debarred or Suspended. However, County staff will begin confirming agency eligibility through the System for Award Management (SAM) in future years.

Local Assistance and Tribal Consistency Fund program (LATCF) - CFDA 21.032 Recommendation: We recommend the County refine its understanding and interpretation of the standards and ensure that the County policies and procedures are consistent with that understanding and interpretation. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: We found this was due to timing of approvals that had to be taken to the board, and a misunderstanding/interpretation of the requirements.

Federal program title - Local Assistance and Tribal Consistency Fund program (LATCF) CFDA 21.032 Recommendation: We recommend the County refine its understanding and interpretation of the standards and ensure that the County policies and procedures are consistent with that understanding and interpretation. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: The LATCF funds were reported on the SEFA under CFDA 21.032 by the CAO’s department because the funds were transferred from the CAO’s fund to the DOT fund, with the understanding it would be expended. However, DOT did not spend the funds within the same fiscal year in which they received the transfer due to a misunderstanding that the funds could not be used for prior year expense. As a result, the funds were recorded as unearned revenue in fiscal year 2023/24, and the related expenditures will be reported in the following fiscal year.

Federal program title: Home Partnership Investment Program, and Local Assistance and Tribal Consistency Fund program CFDA 14.239, 21.032 Recommendation: We recommend that management establish and maintain a formal process for the retention and organization of all grant-related documentation.

Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: The County will not be applying for any CDBG grants in the future unless there is adequate administrative cost allocation in the grant.

Federal program title - Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) Program - CFDA 93.558 Recommendation: We recommend the County implement controls to ensure that all timesheets are properly approved by supervisor prior to submittal. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: Since FY 2015/2016, the Health and Human Services Agency has utilized the Cost Accounting Management System (CAMS), which includes an electronic time study and timecard tracking module. All HHSA staff are required to complete and submit their timecards through this system for supervisor approval prior to payroll submission. While the electronic system is the primary method of tracking and approval, paper timecards are also maintained as a secondary processing method within our agency. Our Timecard Policy and Procedures are reviewed with all new staff during onboarding and with all employees on an annual basis. This procedure outlines, in detail, the roles and responsibilities of both employees and supervisors in the submission and approval process—covering both the electronic and paper formats.
