Finding 2025-001: Reporting – Material weakness in internal controls over compliance and compliance finding. Management Response Effective May 12, 2026, the agency enhanced its performance reporting oversight by requiring the Chief of Mission and the Executive Vice President of Victim Services to review and approve preliminary reports to funding entities drafted by the compliance department, prior to submission. The agency’s compliance department, which consists of a Database Manager, Compliance Manager, and Executive Vice President of Compliance, is tasked with ensuring reliability and validity of client-level database entered in the client database. Monthly, the agency’s compliance department reconciles the number of new and unduplicated participants served by the agency as a whole and within each grant-funded program. The compliance department’s report originator will save the source data electronically, ensuring it matches the official figures submitted to the funding entity. Source data reports will be available upon request by agency staff and/or funders.

Corrective Action Plan Finding No: 2025-002 Condition: During the audit, the City did not verify that the contractor or subcontractor submitted the required certified payrolls for work performed under the federally assisted construction contract. As a result, the City did not maintain or review sufficient documentation to demonstrate compliance with wage rate requirements for all applicable weeks during the audit period. Management’s Plan: The City recognizes the need to improve internal controls related to grant disbursements for labor provided by our contractors. The project this past year included participation from multiple federal funding agencies and payments by the City as well as direct payments to contractors by the funding agencies. We have already added additional procedures and checkpoints to provide for adequate documentation related to certified payrolls. In addition, the City is planning to procure a grant tracking system to automate tracking the details for every project.

Corrective Action Plan Finding No: 2025-001 Condition: During the audit, our procedures indicated that capital expenditures were primarily reviewed at an individual invoice level to determine whether they exceeded the capitalization threshold. We also noted that communication between the City’s finance department and engineers or other City staff responsible for managing grants and capital projects is not consistently formalized. Management’s Plan: Management is committed to strengthening coordination and oversight of the City’s grant-funded capital projects through centralizing project tracking via grant/project management software, implementing rigorous compliance monitoring, and improving intradepartmental communication. By centralizing our grants through the course of their lifespans, we intend to better track the progress of our grant projects and budgets and with the inclusion of grant document storage, to enhance compliance across departments. We will also designate coordination teams consisting of liaisons across administration, finance, engineering, public works, and grant writers to ensure internal alignment.

The YMCA and Affiliates’ have begun enhancing internal controls related to the reporting process through additional staff training, increased cross-training of personnel responsible for report preparation and submission, and the development of more formalized review procedures. Management has also reinforced expectations regarding reporting requirements and completeness prior to submission. These actions are intended to further strengthen consistency and oversight within the reporting process while building upon controls already in place.

The Organization acknowledges and concurs with the auditor’s finding as discussed within the Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs for the year-ended September 30, 2025. During the audit for PTV’s fiscal year 2025, it was determined that we should add an additional layer of confirmation to our approval process. Currently, the President reviews invoices prior to signing the checks, thereby signaling approval. Moving forward, in addition to this review, the President will also confirm approval by initialing the invoice itself. Beyond this initial next step, PTV will also review its current Fiscal Policy to consider implementation of an approval process that allows other authorized approvers the authority to review expenses up to certain thresholds. Policy development at this level requires Finance Committee involvement and full Board approval, so it may take several months to fully implement a new process. We appreciate the opportunity to continue to strengthen PTV’s internal controls and financial operations.

2025-002 PROCUREMENT, SUSPENSION & DEBARMENT Condition: The Organization did not comply with the Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirement Recommendation: The Organization executed the contract in question in June 2024, and the related project was completed in April 2025. The Organization's 2024 audit was not issued until May 2025. Consequently, the Organization was not aware of the Davis-Bacon Act applicability during the period of contract execution and project performance and therefore did not have the opportunity to amend the contract to incorporate the Davis-Bacon Act requirements. In response to the findings identified in the prior year audit, the Organization has since implemented new policies and procedures to ensure timely identification of applicable compliance requirements for future contracts. Corrective Action Plan: The Director of Finance/CFO prepared a summary document regarding the federal guidelines on procurement, in particular highlighting this requirement concerning the Davis- Bacon act.

2025-001 PROCUREMENT, SUSPENSION & DEBARMENT Condition: We identified an instance where the Organization did not verify the suspension and debarment status of a vendor prior to awarding the vendor a federal contract. Documentation of verification through SAM.gov or equivalent methods could not be provided by management. Subsequent review of SAM.gov indicated no instances of suspended or debarred vendors used on the project funded with federal awards. Recommendation: We recommend the Organization ensure the staff involved with procuring contracts using federal awards are aware of the federal requirement, including the already established policies that the Organization has regarding such requirements. Corrective Action Plan: The contract associated with this finding was signed on January 24, 2025, before the 2024 financial audit was finished, so before the organization made changes to their procurement policy. Since then, the organization has reviewed its existing procurement policy, and updated it as necessary and will ensure that for future projects, the procurement policy will be carefully followed, including verification through SAM.gov. Staff involved in projects and procurement will receive training regarding the policies and the federal guidelines for federally funded projects.

Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Federal Program Title: Supportive Housing for the Elderly Section 232 ALN Number: 14.129 Award Period: Year Ended December 31, 2025 Type of Finding: • Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance • Other Matters Criteria or specific requirement: HUD requires a signed management fee agreement when such transactions take place. Condition: Unallowed related party transactions were identified in 2025. Context: Affiliate dues were booked to the Home's cash clearing account as a credit for $400,000 with the understanding that these fees would qualify as a service contract rather than a management fee. However, due to the cash infused into the program by The Carmelite System, the $400,000 will not be noted as questioned costs needing to be repaid into the project. Recommendation: The Home should adhere to the Regulatory Agreement and obtain HUD’s approval prior to taking any actions specifically precluded in the Regulatory Agreement. Action taken in response to finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Management will work to obtain proper approval going forward. If the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development has questions regarding this schedule, please call Corrinne Schindler at 518-537-7500 or CSchindler@CarmeliteSystem.org.

Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Federal Program Title: Supportive Housing for the Elderly Section 232 ALN Number: 14.129 Award Period: Year Ended December 31, 2025 Type of Finding: • Material Weakness in Internal Control over Compliance • Other Matters Criteria or specific requirement: The Home was required to obtain written approval for the member substitution transaction with The Carmelite System, Inc. prior to closing. Condition: Membership transfer agreements must be in place and signed by HUD during the transition of Ownership / Governance. Context: Formal HUD approval was not obtained in relation the Member Substitution in which the Carmelite System, Inc. became the sole member and sponsor of the Home. Recommendation: The Home should adhere to the Regulatory Agreement and obtain HUD’s approval prior to taking any actions specifically precluded in the Regulatory Agreement. Action taken in response to finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Management is working to obtain the necessary HUD approvals.

Management agrees with the finding and acknowledges that internal controls over inventory issuance were not consistently followed by an individual. While procedures existed requiring documentation of pick tickets, compliance with these procedures was not adequately enforced on a small number of transactions. The Cooperative has begun strengthening its internal control processes to ensure that all inventory withdrawals are properly authorized and documented prior to release. In addition, management will implement monitoring procedures, including periodic reviews of inventory documentation, to ensure compliance with established controls. Training will also be provided to all relevant personnel to reinforce proper procedures and the importance of adherence to internal control requirements. Management expects these corrective actions to be fully implemented by May 15, 2026.

2025-002 Housing Choice Voucher Tenant Files: Eligibility Program: U.S. Department of HUD: Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers (ALN #14.871) Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance, Other Matters This is a repeat finding of 2024-003 from September 30, 2024 (Originally reported as Material non-compliance and Material Weakness in Internal Control over Compliance under finding 2019-001 from September 30, 2019) Statement of Condition: Out of a total tenant population of approximately 1,086 leased vouchers, 25 files were selected for testing, and the following errors were discovered. • 1 tenant file where the tenant's utility allowance was miscalculated and reported incorrectly on the 50058 form. Correcting this error would decrease the HAP rent by $26. • 1 tenant file where the tenant's utility allowance was miscalculated and reported incorrectly on the 50058 form. Correcting this error would decrease the HAP rent by $23. • 1 tenant file where the tenant's income was miscalculated and reported incorrectly on the 50058 form. Correcting this error would decrease the HAP rent by $266. • 1 tenant file where the tenant's income was miscalculated and reported incorrectly on the 50058 form. Correcting this error would decrease the HAP rent by $40. • 1 tenant file where the tenant's income was miscalculated and reported incorrectly on the 50058 form. Correcting this error would decrease the HAP rent by $318. • 1 tenant file where the tenant’s utility allowance and income was miscalculated and reported incorrectly on the 50058 form. Correcting this error would decrease the HAP rent by $121. • 1 tenant file where the tenant’s income was miscalculated but did not impact the HAP rent. • 1 tenant file where the tenant’s wage income was coded incorrectly as federal income on the 50058 form. Recommendation: The Authority should correct the deficiencies noted in the tested files and utilize an ongoing quality control review process on the entire tenant population to ensure proper compliance with the requirements related to tenant eligibility. Ongoing staff training and timely management reviews should be utilized to ensure staff is aware of acceptable procedures. In addition, the Authority should review staffing levels, skill sets and case load. Action Taken: The Authority has corrected all deficiencies identified in the files reviewed during the audit. To further strengthen compliance and reduce the likelihood of future errors, several corrective actions have been implemented. The Authority has enhanced its quality control procedures by implementing a systematic file review process. At a minimum, every fifth file processed receives a quality control review to verify the accuracy of third-party verifications, income determinations, utility allowance, and subsidy calculations. In addition, management conducts monthly reviews of at least ten percent (10%) of each Housing Counselor's annual recertifications, with the percentage increased as warranted based on performance trends or identified deficiencies. The HCV Program Manager also reviews a minimum of one out of every five intake files, while all new admissions and move-in files are reviewed by the Compliance Director prior to approval. The Compliance Director additionally conducts monthly compliance reviews of a ten percent (10%) sample of processed files. To improve consistency and reduce calculation errors, the Authority developed and implemented a Family Worksheet and an HCV Computation Worksheet. These tools assist staff in verifying household composition, income calculations, and subsidy determinations prior to the completion of annual reexaminations and interim recertifications. The Authority has also revised its filing system to facilitate more comprehensive reviews of participant documentation during admissions, annual recertifications, and interim adjustments. To ensure compliance with citizenship and eligibility requirements, the Authority created an “Other Adult” packet that includes Form HUD-214 declarations and other required documentation for all adult household members. In addition, HCV Counselor caseloads have been redistributed equitably to improve efficiency, workload management, and accuracy. Caseloads are assigned alphabetically and by multifamily developments, allowing management to more effectively monitor performance, identify training needs, and provide targeted oversight where necessary. Specialty voucher programs, including Emergency Housing Vouchers (EHV), Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing (VASH), Family Unification Program (FUP), and Homeownership vouchers, have been assigned to a dedicated Counselor with specialized training, experience, and responsibility for those programs. Management of all Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) participants has been assigned exclusively to the FSS Coordinator. To strengthen the admissions process, the Authority established an Intake Housing Counselor/Portability Specialist position responsible for determining applicant eligibility, managing the waiting list, and processing portability clients. While the Authority has experienced significant turnover in this position, including three staff changes within the past two years, management recognizes the challenges associated with onboarding and training new staff and has taken steps to improve oversight and support during transition periods. The Authority has also experienced significant turnover within the HCV Department over the past twenty-four months. All current HCV Counselors, with the exception of the newest Intake Counselor, have less than six months of tenure and were not members of the HCV team during the FY 2025 audit period. To ensure staff are fully equipped to administer the program in accordance with HUD requirements, all HCV Counselors will participate in formal external training through Nan McKay & Associates within the next six months, supplemented by ongoing internal training, mentoring, and supervisory review. The Authority believes these corrective actions significantly strengthen internal controls and program oversight and demonstrates its commitment to continuous improvement, regulatory compliance, and the accurate administration of the Housing Choice Voucher Program.
