Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities – Assistance Listing No. 10.937 Recommendation: We recommend the Organization implement a compensating control to formally document their review and approval over payrates, payroll registers and time & effort studies. This review would include comparing the payroll processed and allocated to the grant to the approved time and effort documentation by funding source to ensure payroll costs are not being overcharged. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: The Organization’s practice is to require management approval before employee payrates are changed and before each payroll is initiated in the system. This practice was in place in 2024, but documentation of management approval had not been consistently maintained. The Organization will implement a process where any changes to an employee payrate is approved by a member of management via email prior to the change taking effect. Similarly, the Organization will implement a process where before payroll is processed each pay period, a member of management will review and document their approval of the payroll register via email or via the payroll system itself. In late 2024, the Organization began conducting quarterly time studies by position and adjusting allocations as time spent deviates from the most recent time study. These time studies are approved by the Organization’s management via email correspondence.

Explanation: We acknowledge the oversight and would like to provide context to better understand the circumstances that led to the delay. We faced internal challenges when our previous management company departed, leaving us with incomplete files and late recertifications or recertifications that never commenced, making it nearly impossible to catch up promptly. Next, staff staffing issues contributed to the delays because staff members were not adequately trained. Despite these challenges, we recognize the importance of adhering to HUD regulations and are committed to taking corrective measures. Corrective Actions Taken: We initiated immediate corrective actions to rectify the situation as stated in our 2023 corrective action plan. Upon discovering the late recertifications, we instituted the following measures to prevent the recurrence of late annual recertifications, 1. Created a recertification schedule and calendar with the annual recertification date, specific dates to notify residents that their annual recertification is due, and dates for submitting the information to CMS and to trac. The schedule and calendar are submitted to the executive director every two weeks to monitor progress. A meeting is also scheduled with staff every two weeks to review recertification issues. 2. We hired a consultant specializing in certification to train the staff and work with the staff daily to answer questions concerning our certification. This is not a one-and-done process; our recertification consultant is available on a permanent basis to address certification issues and provide ongoing staff training. These measures are designed to ensure timely compliance with HUD regulations and to strengthen our internal processes.
The Organization agrees with the finding. The Organization indicated that they have put certain procedures in place as detailed in the Corrective Action Plan located in Appendix A.

Corrective Action Plan Provided by Management: Philadelphia Legal Assistance Center, Inc. (PLA) agrees with the finding. In November 2024, PLA hired a Legal Compliance Specialist whose full-time job is to review open and closed cases for compliance mistakes. The Legal Compliance Specialist did not have time to review every case closed in 2024. However, the Legal Compliance Specialist has been reviewing cases all year in 2025 and catching issues with missing citizenship attestations, which should reduce the chances of a case being reported to LSC without the documentation required by 45 C.F.R. 1626. In the summer of 2025, we required all case handlers to watch compliance training videos and answer multiple-choice questions to test their knowledge. The videos and questions included content related to 45 C.F.R. 1626. We plan to require staff to complete a similar training process in 2026, which will include additional content related to 45 C.F.R. 1626 compliance.

Re: Management’s Response & Corrective Action Plan to Procurement Policy & Procurement Action Documentation (2024-004) The Wilmington Land Bank adopted a written Procurement Policy on September 11, 2024.
