Finding 2024-003 – Internal Control Systems Over Compliance, Allowable Costs: Management Response: Management concurs with the finding regarding the discrepancy in reported hours for one employee on the March 2024 reimbursement request. The 16-hour variance was an unintentional clerical error during the preparation of the reimbursement package. The discrepancy was not material, but we agree that stronger controls are necessary to prevent such occurrences. Planned Corrective Actions: To address this finding, management will: • Establish a formal review and approval process for all reimbursement packages, including verification of hours against supporting documentation (e.g., timesheets or payroll records). • Design and implement a checklist to be used during the preparation of reimbursement requests to ensure compliance with allowable cost principles. • Conduct periodic internal audits of submitted RFRs to confirm alignment with backup documentation. • Provide training to all relevant personnel on federal allowable cost requirements under 2 CFR 200. All corrective actions will be implemented by June 30, 2025, with ongoing monitoring thereafter.

Finding 2024-002 – Compliance and Internal Control Systems Over Compliance, Reporting (SEFA): Management Response: Management acknowledges the finding regarding the inconsistent use of the accrual basis of accounting for federal grant reimbursements. At the time of SEFA preparation, the methodology used was based on the reimbursement requests submitted throughout the year, which had been prepared on a cash basis. However, for the final reimbursement under the City of Las Vegas grant ending June 30, 2024, accrued payroll costs for work performed in June but paid in July were included to ensure full reporting of eligible grant activity. This deviation from the previously applied basis led to the noted inconsistency. Planned Corrective Actions: Going forward, management will implement the following corrective actions: • A consistent accounting basis (accrual) will be selected and formally documented for all SEFA reporting and federal reimbursement requests. • Internal procedures will be updated to reflect the chosen basis and ensure it is applied uniformly across all reimbursement submissions. • A secondary review of SEFA reporting will be conducted by senior finance staff or the CEO to ensure consistency with the selected accounting method. • Staff will be trained annually on SEFA requirements and federal compliance standards under 2 CFR 200. These corrective actions will be completed by June 30, 2025.

The preparation of personnel activity reports (PAR) or periodic certifications or the equivalent is the most effective way to comply with this requirement. During the current year, the District prepared periodic certification equivalents, but it did not comply with Subpart E, 2 CFR §200.430. Planned Corrective Action: The District will adopt procedures that ensure that time performed will be used to support costs charged to the federal award, and comply with Subpart E, 2 CFR §200.430.
