Finding 2025-002 U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Housing Voucher Cluster: Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers and Mainstream VouchersALNs 14.871 & amp; 14.879 Eligibility and Reporting Maher Duessel Finding Condition: During our review of 40 tenant files prepared by the Authority as part of the biennial reexamination process, we noted a lack of functioning internal controls, evidenced by 4 of the Authority’s internal control checklists not being completed or unable to be provided for audit, which led to the below exceptions in our testing. We noted one instance where a tenant recertification using the Form HUD-50058, Family Report (Form) (which provides eligibility and reporting information) was not completed on a timely basis. We also noted three instances where other documentation to support the reporting and eligibility assessment as part of completion of the HUD-50058 was not provided. This includes items such as support for income calculation and medical deductions. These exceptions indicate a lack of functioning internal controls and oversight to ensure compliance with HUD requirements related to timely and accurate tenant recertifications. HACP Management Response/Action Taken: Finding 2025-001 - Eligibility and Reporting Finding 2025-002 - U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Housing Voucher Cluster: Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers and Mainstream Vouchers- ALNs 14.871 & 14.879 Eligibility and Reporting Summary and Corrective Action Plan: The audit identified continued, internal control weaknesses related to timely recertifications, completion of required internal control checklists, and documentation supporting income calculations and medical deductions. This is a repeat finding from 2021-2024. To address these deficiencies, the HACP plans to go live on October 1st, 2026, with BOB.ai, an artificial intelligence software solution platform built for Public Housing Authorities (PHAs) to assist with tasks to include rent calculations, recertifications, and case management. BOB.ai will support the timely processing and tracking of recertifications, helping to prevent late recertifications and identify outstanding actions before deadlines are missed. The system will also help ensure required forms and supporting documentation are submitted in full before the recertification is processed, reducing the risk of incomplete files and missing eligibility documentation. The HACP Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) Department is evaluating an additional workflow in DocuClass that will include a finalized checklist as part of the recertification is finalized. The HACP will utilize system-generated reports to monitor upcoming and overdue recertifications, with management regularly reviewing the reports and addressing outstanding items. Staff must complete all applicable internal control checklists, and supervisors will review files to confirm that required documentation and checklists are complete.tification workflow. The HCV management will perform the following actions to assist with ensuring internal compliance to include the following: • Conduct ongoing quality-control reviews and provide staff training on HUD-50058 requirements, documentation standards, and timeliness expectations. • Address recurring deficiencies through documented coaching and corrective action, as appropriate. • Continue to monitor recertification timeliness, documentation completeness, and internal control compliance through monthly reports and file reviews to ensure the corrective actions are effective and prevent recurrence of the finding. • Monitor control functions, staff productivity, work completion, and compliance with established processing timelines. These enhanced monitoring practices have increased management’s ability to identify work that is incomplete, delayed, or otherwise not meeting established performance expectations. • Holding staff accountable through documented coaching, performance management, and disciplinary action, when appropriate, in accordance with applicable HACP policies and procedures. Unfortunately, in some instances, the time required to identify, document, address, and monitor recurring performance deficiencies through the applicable disciplinary process results in work becoming overdue before the HACP can complete the personnel action or otherwise resolve the underlying staffing issue. The HACP recognizes the operational impact of these circumstances and is continuing to strengthen workload monitoring, supervisory oversight, and system-generated alerts. Also, workflow controls are being utilized to identify and address deficiencies as early as possible and minimize the impact of staff turnover and performance-related delays on program operations.

Corrective action steps were taken at 12/31/24 and 12/31/25 to ensure proper modified accrual accounting standards were followed. Individual departments are responsible for submitting accruals in accordance with Controller Office guidelines. The Budget and Finance Division reminded departments on several occasions to submit accruals. Additionally, Budget and Finance performed a high-level review of expenses processed, based on ledger details, in the window between year-end and deadline for accruals to capture any missed accruals. We did not pull every individual voucher for review of service dates. We will continue to follow Controller Office accrual guidelines moving forward as the Controller sets and administers the accounting rules for the County. We will continue to remind departments of their responsibility to adhere to the accrual guidelines as well. It is important to note that American Rescue Plan reporting guidance allows recipients to report on a cash basis. We are in compliance with federal reporting of funds to Treasury. Timetable of dates for performapce of planned corrective action steps includipg completion date: Corrective action steps were taken at 12/31/24 to ensure proper modified accrual accounting standards are followed. .

Corrective action steps taken and/or planned: Programs were instructed to update all current client files to include the rent reasonableness studies, and this should happen annually when the lease is renewed o r any time a client needs to m o v e t o a n o t h e r unit. Providers a r e also n o w maintaining a r e n t reasonableness tracking sheet with all rent related information f o r units considered f o r t h e rent reasonableness analysis. Also, during each m o n t h l y invoice review, program staff look a t each rent payment within each grant and flag any rents that seem excessive and reach out to the provider with any questions. If the rent is deemed too high o r ineligible, we will ask the provider to remove the amount from the invoice. We also have an updated, HUD approved, Rent Reasonableness policy, which has been provided to all housing providers. Timetable of dates for performance of planned corrective action steps including completion date: Active. The communication of the process changes to housing providers had occurred and monitoring is taking place. Since 2024, our office has made a full push regarding monitoring of the providers, especially related to rent calculations and rent reasonableness policies and procedures. Our Fiscal Specialist has accompanied our monitoring team throughout their technical assistance season (Nov2025 — Feb2026) and the actual monitoring season (Feb2026 — still ongoing but wrapping up in July). Fiscal Specialist has worked with the provider’s fiscal staff to create, revise and maintain new policies and procedures to ensure rent reasonableness processes are completed. We will continue to monitor these items specifically throughout 2026 and beyond. E. Description of monitoring to be performed to ensure corrective action steps are taken: Program monitors have added the Rent Reasonableness test to their annual monitoring. This has also been added to our Fiscal Monitoring, which is done annually as well, but with more focus on invoicing a n d contracting. During Fiscal Monitoring, some leases a r e reviewed to e n s u r e all items are covered along with the rent reasonableness. We will continue to work with providers to ensure they are adhering to HUD’s requirements. We will continue to monitor their policies and train them to enhance their compliance in order to continue to utilize these much needed federal funds.

We review each invoice monthly as they are submitted. Most of the reviews are insuring the items being invoiced are eligible under HUD and making sure the amounts are added correctly. We will review more closely the match submitted. Match for HUD is now reported based on the entire funding and not by individual grants. All match from all HUD programs is added together and submitted on one final report at the end o f each funding year. The requirement is 25% on all budget lines except for Leasing. However, if one program’s match is short of the 25% requirement, the overall CoC is responsible for the full match, 50 additional DHS admin costs are used to represent the additional match needed. For our FY24—25 annual report to HUD, we submitted 29.63% in match for the overall funding. This amount did not include any additional HMIS (data system) costs, Allegheny Link (our coordinated entry system) costs or additional DHS admin costs. With these additional eligible activities, our matching amount could have been over 50%. Therefore, even if some identified items were considered ineligible our match would not be in jeopardy since we have a lot ofeligible costs that DHS covers that would be considered match. Timetable of dates for performance of planned corrective action steps including completion date:_ Active. Each month, invoices are reviewed, and match is documented on our overall invoice tracking sheet. Since 2024, the Fiscal Specialist has been checking the reported match in each invoice to properly track the overall matching total. We will continue this into 2026 and will be asking for specific breakdowns if or when reported match is questioned or misreported. Matching is also now a focus point of the annual monitoring by our office. Criteria reviewed includes making sure programs meet both their pledge amount as well as their 25% match requirement based on spending. The review ensures that these activities are eligible expenses and that programs have adequate supporting documentation available. On 6/26/26, we sent an email indicating that we will be tracking and checking match differently going in FY26-27. We will be asking all providers to show match similar in each invoice and ensuring that calculated match on the invoice cover sheets will also show the submitted match per the backup provided. Hopefully this will clear up any discrepancies going forward. E. Description of monitoring to be p erformed to ensure corrective action steps are taken: The match will be reviewed monthly during each monthly invoice review. This has also been added to the Fiscal Monitoring process so that certain providers will be reviewed annually as well.

Housing Division staff at Economic Development will complete monitoring of owner records related to tenant income eligibility and on-site monitoring for the 24 developments that are behind schedule. These 24 will be in addition to those that are scheduled to be monitored in the 2026 fiscal year (7/01/2026-6/30/2027), for a total of 40 properties in all. One property in question is in litigation at this moment so that visit may depend on advice of counsel on how to proceed. Timetable of dates for performance of planned corrective action steps including completion date: All of the above-noted properties will be monitored between this date and the end of the fiscal year – June 30, 2027. Staff will prioritize those properties that are behind schedule for completion by September 30, 2026. Description of monitoring to be performed to ensure corrective action steps are taken: Staff will prioritize those properties that are behind schedule with the goal of completion by the end of the 3rd calendar quarter (September 30, 2026). The Housing Division Manager will require staff to provide on a bi-weekly basis a list of properties that have been scheduled for visits as well as results of those recently completed (both for the 24 properties and regularly scheduled visits). Unlike in past years, the monitoring visits will be spread throughout the year so that they can be completed in an orderly fashion and staff will have more flexibility to adjust to the property managers’ schedules for the visits. Once this fiscal year is complete, all of the properties should be back on a triennial basis for monitoring.

Corrective action steps taken and/or planned: We have reviewed the Cash-on-Hand reports and determined that the issue stems from program income balances being carried over and erroneously added to the grant balances each reporting period. Since program income is the first funding drawn down before entitlement funding it should be a zero balance at the end of the quarter. We will implement a process for the accounting staff to pull the PR01 – HUD Grants and Program Income report to compare the program income balance, when completing the Cash-on Hand report each quarter to verify program income expenditures.

Corrective action steps taken and/or planned: There are 2 primary reasons for the delay in submitting cross charges. One, an EA authorizing cross charges for specific programs had not been submitted. The EA has been submitted and approved and all outstanding cross charges are being processed at the time of this response. The second reason is due to the reimbursement process for some of the programs that the Department staff administers. The department, for many programs, acts as the sponsoring applicant, on behalf of non-profit agencies because certain programs disallow non-profits to apply on their own. Many of the programs do not pay costs up front to the department, requiring that the non-profits pay from their local funds, therefore delaying the ability to cross-charge costs to reimburse the CDBG program immediately. It was discovered after the former Senor Fiscal Manager left that billing for many projects had not occurred. The department has developed a process to bill the non-profits for the allowable administrative costs as soon as work on the projects begins to be able to reimburse CDBG timelier. Timetable of dates for performance of planned corrective action steps including completion date: At the time of this response cross-charges are being processed. Do. It is anticipated that all outstanding cross charges will be completed by the end of June 2026. E. Description of monitoring to be performed to ensure corrective action steps are taken: The Assistant Director, Operations and Assistant Director, Finance will work closely to ensure cross charges are completed in a timely manner now that processes have been established for all funding sources.

Corrective action planned: Community-Minded Enterprises (CME) agrees with the finding and has implemented a formal Subrecipient Risk Assessment and Monitoring Policy and related procedures to strengthen its subrecipient oversight process and ensure compliance with 2 CFR §200.332. Under the new policy, CME will conduct and document a risk assessment prior to executing a subaward. The assessment evaluates factors including prior experience with similar awards, financial stability, audit and monitoring history, internal controls, management or staffing changes, prior corrective actions, fraud risk indicators, and SAM/debarment status.

MATERIAL WEAKNESS IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE – SCHEDULE OF EXPENDITURES OF FEDERAL AWARDS – ALL FEDERAL PROGRAMS 2025-001 Reporting Compliance Requirement – Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) Finding Summary 2 CFR § 200.510 requires that the City of Plymouth, Minnesota (the City) prepare appropriate annual financial statements, including the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA), which must include the total federal awards expended as determined in accordance with 2 CFR § 200.502. The City did not have proper controls in place to ensure completeness of the SEFA and compliance with this requirement. During our audit, we noted the City did not have sufficient controls in place to ensure the accurate preparation of the SEFA in compliance with this requirement. The City’s SEFA for fiscal 2025 was understated by $1,587,830 due to the exclusion of federal expenditures incurred during the period, requiring a restatement of the previously issued SEFA and additional major program testing. Corrective Action Plan Actions Planned – The SEFA understatement resulted from a lack of coordination between the department that obtained and administered the federal grant and with finance department staff responsible for preparing the SEFA. To strengthen the year-end reporting process, the City has implemented updated procedures requiring a grant-level reconciliation of expenditures and revenues at year-end to ensure they are recorded in the proper fiscal period before preparing the SEFA. Federal grant coordinators and finance department staff will jointly review federal expenditures for accuracy and timing. This strengthened process will help ensure complete and accurate federal expenditure reporting in the SEFA. Official Responsible – The City’s Finance Director, Andrea Rich. Planned Completion Date – December 31, 2026. Disagreement With or Explanation of Finding – The City agrees with the finding and has implemented additional procedures to strengthen controls over reporting. Plan to Monitor – The City’s Finance Director, Andrea Rich, will verify that year-end grant reconciliations are completed and reviewed prior to SEFA preparation.
