Management is cognizant of the District?s internal control structure and continues to evaluate cost effective opportunities to further improve segregation of duties. The District has strengthened the internal control structure in recent years by revising the roles and responsibilities of multiple positions within the accounting department. The District continues to identify and implement effective mitigating controls when possible. Current District procedures in both the accounts payable and payroll functions include one position that is primarily responsible for transaction processing and require that a second individual review and approve transactions. As a result of these procedures, the Finance Manager has less responsibility with daily functions which enables the position to provide additional secondary review and oversight both in the financial areas of accounts payable, accounts receivable, and in the payroll/HR areas. Name of responsible official: Michelle Lillibridge, Business Services Director Expected Completion Date: Ongoing, no formal expected completion date

Finding 2022-002 Federal Agency Name: Department of Homeland Security & Emergency Management Program Name: Disaster Grants ? Public Assistance Federal Financial Assistance Listing # 97.036 Finding Summary: Equipment costs were claimed for reimbursement and match that used the 2019 FEMA equipment rates for combination rate vehicles instead of the applicable 2017 FEMA equipment rates for combination rate vehicles. In addition, the Cooperative submitted equipment costs for reimbursement and match that duplicated usage of certain vehicles. Responsible Individuals: Jon Wunder, Chief Financial Officer and Jay Cleveland, Accounting Manager. Corrective Action Plan: The Cooperative met the threshold for a single audit for the first time in several years. To make the process as efficient as possible, the Cooperative developed an excel template that summarizes the Cooperative?s accounting data into formats that are summarized for FEMA submission, review and audit. Once the errors were identified by the auditors, a revised claim was calculated and submitted for reimbursement. The Cooperative used this template for two FEMA submissions in 2022 and continues to refine the output measured by input from reviewers and auditors. In addition, the Cooperative will develop a written process that details the preparation and review of the excel template and submitted costs. Anticipated Completion Date: June 30, 2023

Condition: During testing of the Education Stabilization Fund grant, it was noted that the District budgeted for and included items in capital outlay objects in both the general ledger and Illinois State Board of Education expenditure reports that were below the District?s capitalization threshold of $5,000. Recommendation: The District should only include items greater than its $5,000 capitalization threshold in capital outlay objects in its general ledger, budgets, and expenditure reports filed with the Illinois State Board of Education. Management Response: Management and the grant coordinator added the total cost of the project instead of the individual cost of items ordered. The grant coordinator and management have discussed and created an action plan to ensure that the threshold is considered when ordering individual items that may exceed $5,000 in total, but fall short of that amount when considered individually. Accounts have been established for equipment falling below the $5,000 threshold. Anticipated Date of Completion: June 30, 2023

We currently have a process in place and are working collaboratively with our information technology system analysts to implement controls to ensure the correct program begin date is used for all future students entering the College. We are now in the process of reviewing and updating our program level enrollment data.

Finding 2022-001 - Lack of Segregation of Duties The District understands that this is a significant deficiency but feels it is not cost-effective at this time to hire additional employees to properly segregate duties. We feel that the oversight performed by the Superintendent and Board of Education over the financial statement activity and reports of the District is adequate to help mitigate the lack of segregation of duties. We believe it would be inefficient and cost prohibitive to hire the additional employees needed to properly segregate duties so at this time we do no plan on making any changes. However, we will continue to monitor this situation and periodically determine if it is cost-effective for us to properly segregate duties.

CFDA No. and Name: 10.691 Good Neighbor Authority Responsible Persons: Siri Mullaney, Finance Director Anticipated completion date: June 30, 2023 Corrective Action: Concur. In fiscal year 2023, the Flood Control District was moved from the Public Works Department and formed into a stand-alone department, allowing for the hire of new staff dedicated to the management of federal awards. This increase in oversight will provide the capacity to accurately account for federal awards and comply with requirements such as adherence to the award start and end dates and the receipt of pre-approval by the federal agency for pre-award costs. The County will continue to provide technical assistance and resources to departments managing federal awards.

The prior auditor informed the organization (CYA) in November 2022 that they were not able to conduct the Single audit although CYA closed their FY 21-22 books timely (before November 2022). Therefore, CYA had to commence a search for another audit firm in November 2022. CYA was able to find and engage a new audit firm 3 months later. This caused a delay in starting the audit process for FY 21-22. We guarantee that in future years, the year-end closing will continue to be completed timely. Now that CYA has a new audit firm, capable of conducting Single Audits, we will ensure the audit process starts with sufficient lead time to ensure that the Single Audit process is completed timely. We have allocated the Human Resources needed to manage the increased workload and reporting requirements pertaining to CFR 200 Audit Requirements. Additional Human Resources will ensure a quicker year-end closing process and complete preparation for the year-end Single Audit process to be completed in a timely manner. In addition, moving forward we will confirm the audit engagement with the audit firm earlier to begin the audit process earlier in the subsequent year and plan sufficient time to provide the information needed to complete the financial audit and the Single Audit in a timely manner. Name of the contact persons responsible for corrective action: Jhae Thompson, Executive Director, and Goldin Group CPAs. Planned completion date for corrective action plan: The FY2023 books are expected to be closed by the end of October 2023. The FY2023 audit is expected to start in November 2023 and be completed by the end of March 2024.
