2025-003. Special Tests and Provisions United States Department of Education, passed through New York State Department of Education: Education Stabilization Fund COVID-19: American Rescue Plan – Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief ALN: 84.425U Condition: The District did not have formal contracts with the contractors for some of the construction projects funded with ARP ESSER 3 funds. Although the contractors indicated in their submitted proposals that their quoted price was based on prevailing wages, there was no legally-enforceable contractual language requiring the contractors and their subcontractors to comply with the federal Wage Rate Requirements clauses and DOL regulations. Recommendation: The District should review and revise its existing procedures for reviewing and approving capital construction projects to ensure that fully-executed contracts are obtained, and that such contracts contain clauses related to the compliance with the federal Wage Rate Requirements. Planned Corrective Action: The District will review and revise its existing procedures for reviewing and approving capital construction projects to ensure that fully-executed contracts are obtained with clauses mandating compliance with federal Wage Rate Requirements. Responsible Contact Person: Mr. Chaim Wercberger District Treasurer Kiryas Joel Union Free School District 48 Bakertown Road Suite 401 Monroe, NY 10950 Anticipated completion date: June 30, 2026.

2025-002. Equipment and Real Property Management United States Department of Education, passed through New York State Department of Education Education Stabilization Fund COVID-19: American Rescue Plan – Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief ALN: 84.425U Condition: The District did not include the capital expenditures for the “Early Childhood Educational Center (ECEC) Door Project”, “ECEC Roof Project”, “Front Vestibule Project”, and “Playground Equipment & Rubber Surfacing of Upper Play Area” that were paid with ARP ESSER 3 funds, in its current year’s capital assets inventory record. Additionally, certain items included as additions on the capital assets appraisal inventory report, such as classrooms equipment purchased with ARP ESSER 3 funds, did not match the amounts of expenditures in the District’s financial accounting application. Recommendation: The District should revise its existing procedures for compiling annual capital assets additions information to ensure equipment and capital-type expenditures purchased with federal funds are considered and evaluated for inclusion in the District’s annual capital assets inventory records. Planned Corrective Action: The District intends to modify its Capital Assets Accounting Policy to include the assets related to our long-term building leases, such as our new HVAC systems. We will also provide the leasehold improvement information to the District's appraisal company in order to update our capital assets inventory report.

LSC Grants (Basic and Native American) – Assistance Listing No. 09.742018 Recommendation: The Organization should implement a review process for proper cutoff of federal expenditures incurred during a grant’s period o fperformance to ensure only expenses incurred during current periods are included. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: The Organization respectfully disagrees to the extent the finding suggests a reporting deficiency related to the specific item identified. As reflected in the audit correspondence, the underlying accrual in question was reviewed and determined by both the Organization’s accounting support and the auditors to be immaterial, and no adjustment was recommended or required. However, the Organization acknowledges the value of formalizing documentation of its review procedures to ensure consistency and clarity in all reporting determinations. Action taken in response to finding: Notwithstanding the above, the Organization will implement a formalized review and documentation process for financial and performance reports to ensure that all determinations—including immaterial items—are consistently reviewed, documented, and supported. This will include: • A standardized report review checklist • Documentation of materiality assessments and related decisions • Secondary review and approval prior to submission This process will be incorporated into the Organization’s accounting procedures and applied consistently across all LSC-funded grants. In addition, the revision to the Accounting Manual will be submitted to LSC for its review.

Recommendation: We recommend that the District segregate all duties to ensure no single employee has access to assets and record keeping of those assets. Because oflimited staff, we realize segregation of the above duties is not practical, if not impossible. Therefore, the responsibility of the Business Manager is greatly increased because the Board must rely on her knowledge of the everyday operations to discover any material changes in the District's financial position. Management's Response: The District acknowledges this finding and has analyzed staffing; however, due to budget constraints finds it is not possible to hire the additional staff needed to put the controls in place to properly rectify this finding. Management's Response: The District acknowledges this finding and, due to limited resources, cannot overcome this finding at this time but will put a plan in place to work towards improving controls to prevent or detect material misstatements in the preparation of the financial statements.

Finding 2025-001 Federal Agency Name: U.S. Department of Treasury Assistance Listing Number: 21.027 Program Name: COVID-19 Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds The finding & related comments immediately below reflect a debarment verification issue identified in the FY24 audit. The FY25 audit report includes the same finding but downgraded from “Material” to “Significant”. The FY24 finding was corrected in March 2025, and so was not inside the scope of testing for the entire year of Fiscal 2025. No new instances, related to this finding, were identified during the most recent FY 2025 audit. Finding Summary: The City had performed suspension and debarment check prior to entering into the transaction; however, the documentation was not retained. Therefore, testing was unable to verify the debarment check had been performed. Corrective Action Plan: The city of Nampa asserts that the material finding from the single audit of Federal Awards greater than $1,000,000, relates to the “Debarment verification” requirement that is correctly being executed, but not documented. The lack of documentation forms the basis of the finding, and is applicable to the programs listed below: COVID-19 Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds 21.027 Additionally, this step will be added to the capital projects process review checklist as a required step in the project approval.
