CONDITION: The Northern Cambria School District contracted Eber HVAC, Inc. for the School District’s RTU Replacement Project which constitutes a construction-related purchase respectively which requires prior approval from the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE). The School District did not obtain the required prior approval from PDE for this expenditure. This is a repeat finding (2023-001) for the prior fiscal year. CRITERIA: PDE and Section 2 CFR 200.439(b) of the Uniform Guidance require prior written approval by the federal or pass-through awarding agency for capital purchases including equipment, buildings, and land. Capital expenditures for special purpose equipment with a unit cost of $5,000 or more must also have prior approval. MANAGEMENT’S CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN: Management will complete the Prior Approval Form for the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) and obtain approval from PDE in advance of incurring any future federally funded expenditures, that meet PDE’s criteria as a capital purchase, to ensure compliance with PDE and Section 2 CFR 200.439(b) of the Uniform Guidance. This procedure will be implemented effective immediately for all future applicable capital purchases.

Finding 2024-002 HUD Approval Process for Residual Receipts Withdrawal Program Name/Assistance Listing Title: Supportive Elderly Housing Section 202 Federal Assistance Listing No: 14.157 Corrective Action Plan: To address the issue of withdrawing funds from the residual receipts account without prior HUD approval, we will take corrective actions to ensure compliance with HUD regulations. We will communicate this with HUD to determine if replenishment is required and provide supporting documentation for review. If HUD mandates replenishment, we will explore available funding sources to restore the withdrawn amount. Additionally, we will enhance documentation procedures, implement stricter internal controls to ensure prior approval for withdrawals, and designate a compliance contact to facilitate future HUD communications. A tracking system will also be developed to oversee fund withdrawals and prevent similar occurrences in the future. Proposed Completion Date: 12/31/2025

These actions will strengthen financial oversight and help maintain compliance with HUD regulations. Proposed Completion Date: 12/31/2025

Explanation and Corrective Action Taken: The audit for the Year Ended June 30, 2021 was completed in June 2023 which has caused a rippling effect for subsequent audits to be filed late. The Fiscal Officer that was responsible for the June 30, 2021 audit did not prepare or provide the necessary financial information to the Auditors. That Fiscal Officer resigned in March 2022 and the position remained vacant until August 1st, 2022. In August 2022, the preceding Fiscal Officer was rehired. During their prior employment from February 2013 until March 2021 there were no audit findings. In addition to the Fiscal Officer position being vacant for five months, there was a new fiscal coordinator position created and the fiscal assistant position had gone through 3 staff members in less than three years. There are no staff at Human Response Network (HRN) with accounting education or experience except for the Fiscal Officer and fiscal department of three. The Fiscal Officer who was re-hired in August 2022 completed the 6/30/2021 audit, submitted May 4, 2023, the 6/30/2022 audit, submitted July 9, 2024, and the 6/30/2023 audit, submitted January 23, 2025. The 6/30/2024 audit is currently in progress and nearly finished. All efforts to submit it to the Federal Clearinghouse by 3/31/2025 were made, however we will miss the deadline by approximately 2 weeks. Human Response Network agrees that monthly reconciliations of all general ledger and balance sheet accounts should be performed timely and accurately. Staff continue to receive internal and external training and mentoring from experienced staff members. The Fiscal Procedures will be reviewed and updated to strengthen internal controls and weaknesses in processes or controls within 90 days of the audit submission.

Audit Finding 2024-0001 - Review of the security deposit account showed that the balance as of December 31, 2024 was insufficient to cover the tenant security deposit liability and was not held in an interest bearing account. - Management response: The Project had a shortfall of operational cash and used some funds from the security deposit account. The fees associated with an interest bearing bank account would outweigh the benefits of interest based on the size of the security deposit account. Auditee will replenish the money to the security deposit account as soon as possible. Management will also research the feasibility of finding a bank account that will pay sufficient interest to cover any fees charged.
