Finding 2024-001: Financial Data Schedule; Housing Choice Voucher-14.871 Material Weakness/Noncompliance Reporting We agree with the finding and have struggled to get back financial information from our fee accountants in a timely fashion which then causes the unaudited submissions to not be able to be performed in a proper submission time line. The housing authority has already taken steps to be sure the information is sent to the fee accountant in a proper time period at the end of the month. Currently, we are following up monthly with the fee accountant head to ask how getting monthly’s caught up is going. The most recent attempt also requested that extra staff be added to get Housing Partner’s monthly reports caught up. We are actively taking steps to keep following up with the fee accountant. This is a problem that is going to need to be resolved or the housing authority may be forced to look for a new fee accountant.

Action Taken: Management agrees with the recommendations. The unique situation with the COVID-19 funding, coupled with shifts in the business manager’s duties over the last few years and the staff retirement has resulted in grant report filings becoming a lower priority. The management team will work together and will resume management team meetings to determine and monitor the duties for which each is responsible. Strides have been made in this regard, as the principals have become involved in Federal program training, budgeting, and scheduling. Although the aforementioned report submissions are delinquent and funding was suspended, some filings have been completed, and certain payments are forthcoming. However, management will begin to gradually involve the new business office employee in grant reporting to improve on compliance with grant reporting requirements.
