Views of responsible officials and planned corrective action: The Authority has an interlocal agreement with a neighboring housing authority for administration of the Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers Program. The authority understands the reason for the finding, in that the unit did not pass reinspection within the required period without penalty. Previously a quality control sample of Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher files administered by the neighboring Housing Authority had been reviewed each month. This was with respect to the income calculation, specifically. The Authority will add a verification of inspection requirements to this process, however, effective 12/31/2024 the Authority has terminated the administration contract with the neighboring housing authority. The Authority has hired staff to focus on the Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers Program and compliance with program requirements. Heather Blough, Executive Director, will be responsible to implement this corrective action by June 30, 2025.

JEVS HUMAN SERVICES AND AFFILIATES CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 FINDINGS – FEDERAL AWARD PROGRAM AUDITS U.S. Department of Education 2024-001 Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance Student Financial Aid Cluster: 84.063 – Federal Pell Grant Program 84.268 – Federal Direct Student Loans Condition: Certain students’ enrollment information was not reported accurately or timely to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS). Recommendation: We recommend the College to review its procedures for transmitting accurate information to the NSLDS.

SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE – U.S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE, PASSED THROUGH MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION, CHILD NUTRITION CLUSTER – FEDERAL ALN 10.555, 10.553, AND 10.582 2024-001 Internal Control Over Compliance With Federal Suspension and Debarment Requirements Finding Summary 2 CFR § 180 requires Independent School District No. 280 (the District) to establish and maintain effective internal control over compliance with requirements applicable to its federal program expenditures, including applicable suspension and debarment requirements. The District did not have sufficient controls in place within the child nutrition cluster federal programs to assure that it was not contracting for goods or services with parties that are suspended or debarred, or whose principals are suspended or debarred from participating in contracts involving the expenditures of federal program funds. Corrective Action Plan Actions Planned – The District has implemented a corrective action plan to ensure that all new vendors are verified for eligibility before engaging in any contractual agreements. The District checks each prospective vendor's status on the SAM.gov website to confirm they are not suspended or debarred, and follows the vendor to receive e-mail notifications of changes. The District will search SAM.gov for all regular vendors that we charge to federal programs at the beginning of each fiscal year. Additionally, the District has scheduled quarterly meetings to review fiscal year-to-date spending by vendor for any unanticipated vendors who might be approaching the $25,000 threshold. Official Responsible – The District’s Director of Finance, James Gilligan. Planned Completion Date – June 30, 2025. Disagreement With or Explanation of Finding – The District agrees with this finding. Plan to Monitor – The District’s Chief Administrative Officer, Craig Holje, will monitor the implementation of these corrective actions as determined by the Director of Finance to ensure appropriate controls are in place to verify that any vendor with which the District contracts for federal program goods or services exceeding $25,000 is not listed as suspended or debarred on the federal Excluded Parties List System website.

Thomas College will ensure that there are dual controls relating to the programs like the Perkins Loan Program going forward to ensure that both the CFO and the Controller are able to access and make deposits. The CFO position was vacant at the time and the Controller was filling both positions, which led to the oversight. When the new CFO started, they determined that there was no lost interest due to the timing of the cash deposit and going forward they would work in collaboration to ensure this was not missed in the future.

Finding Number: 2024-001 Program Name/Assistance Listing Title: COVID-19 Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Fund Assistance Listing Number: 21.027 Contact Person: Jeremy Bow, Director of Finance Anticipated Completion Date: August 12, 2024 Planned Corrective Action: In May of 2020, amid the urgent health and safety impacts of the global Covid-19 pandemic, Emerge closed its emergency shelter facility in order to transition to the use of a hotel to provide a non-congregate shelter setting for its Participants. In the urgency to make the transition and the uncertainty of the duration of stay, Emerge did not perform a SAM.gov review of the hotel for suspension or debarment, as federal funds were not anticipated to be utilized at the time. In April 2022, Emerge surpassed the $25,000 threshold for federal funds paid to this vendor during a fiscal year. Having previously been operating out of the hotel for nearly 2 years prior, the need for a SAM.gov review was overlooked at that time and was not identified on the audits for either fiscal year 2022 or 2023. When notified of the deficiency on August 12, 2024, during initial field work for the audit of fiscal year 2024, Emerge took same-day action to resolve the previous oversight. On August 12, 2024 Emerge performed the necessary check via SAM.gov and confirmed the vendor hotel was free from suspension or debarment. Concurrently, Emerge revised its Procurement Policy to specifically require compliance with Federal Acquisition Regulation Systems - 2 CFR §180.300 & §180.995. Per Emerge Procurement Policy, revised August 2024: “Any Agency procurement action which will utilize federal or sub-federal funds, in full or in part, shall be done so in compliance with Federal Acquisition Regulation Systems - 48 CFR §2 Subpart 2.1, 2 CFR §200 Subpart D, and 2 CFR §180.300 & §180.995 as required by federal regulation. Compliance with this and all other Federal guidance shall be the shared responsibility of the Chief Executive Officer, Senior Leadership, and the Director of Finance. Copies of these regulations shall be maintained by the Agency for reference.” It is Emerge’s perspective that appropriate action has been taken in order to substantially mitigate the risk of recurrence based on the revisions to its Procurement Policy and the internal reviews of both the revised policy and the audit finding with Senior Leadership.
