Auditor recommendation: We recommend the City strengthen policies and procedures to ensure program directors are following procedures and documenting review and approval as part of monitoring of subrecipients, and that subawards reported on the SEFA are verified against the characteristics of the agreement and the relationship with the other entity. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: The City agrees with this finding. Vacancies in key positions resulted in a lack of robust oversight of subrecipient monitoring during FY24. These key positions have now been filled. The Accounting Officer, Grants Manager and Accounting Financial Analyst positions in the Finance Department have been filled with qualified people who have extensive grant management experience, and the Grants Division is now fully staffed. More robust staffing is allowing Finance to work more closely with federal grant program managers throughout City government. During the second half of FY24 the Finance team worked with our accounting consulting firm to develop and deploy Uniform Guidance training to over 50 employees City-wide. The AGA Recipient checklist for determining if the entity receiving funds has a contractor or subrecipient relationship was discussed and provided during this training and some City departments are now using it as part of the process to develop agreements that use federal funds. The Finance Director’s review of proposed agreements now includes an evaluation of the reasonableness of the subrecipient or contractor determination prior to the Finance Director signing the agreement. In CY25 the Finance team will work to develop additional procedures to ensure that subawards reported on the SEFA are verified against the characteristics of the agreement and the relationship with the other entity. Additionally, the Finance Director, the Accounting Officer, and the Grants team will work to strengthen policies and procedures and deploy training to ensure program managers understand subrecipient monitoring procedures, including documenting review and approval as part of monitoring of subrecipients. The City plans to provide additional Uniform Guidance training for staff in CY25 which will include subrecipient monitoring requirements.

Auditor recommendation: The auditor recommends the City enhance the design of its control activities and create a tool to assist in tracking and maintaining equipment purchased with federal funds. Additionally, the employees responsible for the inventory should be trained to ensure understanding of the Uniform Guidance requirements relevant to equipment and real property management. Periodic review should also be designed to evaluate compliance with relevant requirements. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Correc􀀁ve Ac􀀁on: The City agrees with this finding. During FY24 the Airport Manager hired a Heavy Equipment Mechanic. This posi􀀁on is responsible for tracking, maintaining, and repairing Airport equipment. Logbooks are now being kept for all equipment. In CY25 the Finance Director, the Accoun􀀁ng Officer, and the Grants team will work with the Airport team to improve internal controls over equipment purchased with federal funds. Policies and procedures will be developed to ensure that an accurate physical inventory that contains the informa􀀁on required by the Uniform Guidance is conducted at year-end. The City is in the process of contrac􀀁ng with a vendor to assist the Airport with federal compliance and provide training for Airport staff on relevant Uniform Guidance requirements. The vendor’s scope of work will include helping with developing and documen􀀁ng policies and standard opera􀀁ng procedures related to equipment management. Tools will be developed to facilitate tracking and maintaining equipment purchased with federal funds. Addi􀀁onally, the Airport Department plans to create a Grant Accountant posi􀀁on which will be responsible for reconciling grant expenditures monthly. The Grant Accountant will also work with the Airport Heavy Equipment Mechanic to ensure that the inventory lis􀀁ng includes the funding source used for the purchase (i.e. federal or non-federal). In CY25 the City plans to provide Uniform Guidance to staff which will include capital assets and equipment informa􀀁on, and the specific requirements for the year-end inventory.

Auditor recommendation: The auditor recommends that the City implement a final review for potential duplicated costs prior to approving reimbursement requests, and adjust the general ledger for any such items noted. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Correc􀀁ve Ac􀀁on: The City agrees with this finding. A reimbursement request was submi􀀂ed 3/18/24 in the amount of $634,532.45. It was later iden􀀁fied that the reimbursement request included duplicate payroll expenditures in the amount of $2,694. One of the duplicated items, totaling $1,115, was iden􀀁fied through internal review within the City of Santa Fe a􀀃er the reimbursement request was submi􀀂ed. A credit memo has been processed in the FAA’s Delphi system and the City has repaid the $1,115 amount that was duplicated. The other item, totaling $1,579, was iden􀀁fied through the external audit. The City will process an addi􀀁onal credit memo and repay the $1,579 amount promptly. The Finance Director, the Accoun􀀁ng Officer, and the Grants team are working with the Airport team to strengthen policies and procedures and ensure a full review of the general ledger for the federal program to ensure no duplicate costs are charged prior to reimbursement requests being submi􀀂ed. A secondary review by the Finance Department of all Airport requests for reimbursement is now occurring prior to submission to FAA. In addi􀀁on, we have started using employee pay advices as addi􀀁onal suppor􀀁ng documenta􀀁on for reimbursement requests. In the past excel spreadsheets were used as suppor􀀁ng documenta􀀁on, and the Finance Department review some􀀁mes happened a􀀃er the reimbursement request was submi􀀂ed. Vacancies in key posi􀀁ons resulted in a lack of robust review of reimbursement requests prior to submission. These key posi􀀁ons have now been filled. The City now has an Airport Manager with substan􀀁al experience managing municipal airports and overseeing federal funding for airports. The Accoun􀀁ng Officer, Grants Manager and Accoun􀀁ng Financial Analyst posi􀀁ons in the Finance Department have been filled, and the Grants Division is now fully staffed. More robust staffing is allowing Finance to work more closely with the Airport team. One of the primary du􀀁es of the new Accoun􀀁ng Financial Analyst in the Grants Division is to support the administra􀀁on of Airport grants. The City is in the process of contrac􀀁ng with a vendor to assist the Airport with federal compliance and provide training for Airport staff on relevant Uniform Guidance requirements. The vendor’s scope of work will include helping with developing and documen􀀁ng policies and standard opera􀀁ng procedures for requests for reimbursement. Addi􀀁onally, the Airport Department plans to create a Grant Accountant posi􀀁on which will be responsible for reconciling grant expenditures monthly and processing reimbursement requests quarterly. The Finance Department will con􀀁nue to perform a secondary review of Airport requests for reimbursement prior to submission to FAA. In CY25 the City plans to provide Uniform Guidance training for staff which will include internal controls related to ac􀀁vi􀀁es allowed and allowable costs.

Auditor recommendation: We recommend that the City establish policies and procedures for requesting reimbursement of grant expenditures on a monthly basis, including reconciliation of the expenditures and reimbursements under each grant. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Correc􀀁ve Ac􀀁on: The City agrees with this finding. Vacancies in key posi􀀁ons including the Airport Manager and the Transit Director of Administra􀀁on meant that there was not sufficient exper􀀁se in the program areas to ensure that reimbursement requests were prepared and submi􀀂ed 􀀁mely. These key posi􀀁ons have now been filled. The City now has an Airport Manager with substan􀀁al experience managing municipal airports and overseeing federal funding for airports. The City also hired a Transit Director of Administra􀀁on with extensive federal and state grant management experience, and exper􀀁se in Transit programs. The Accoun􀀁ng Officer, Grants Manager and Accoun􀀁ng Financial Analyst posi􀀁ons in the Finance Department have been filled, and the Grants Division is now fully staffed. More robust staffing is allowing Finance to perform more oversight in addi􀀁on to working more closely with Transit and Airport program staff. Filling these key posi􀀁ons and retaining qualified staff is essen􀀁al to establishing a process for 􀀁mely requests for reimbursement, and reconcilia􀀁on of expenditures and reimbursement under each grant. The Transit Division is working with a contractor provided by the FTA on establishing policies and procedures to ensure compliance with federal grant requirements. This contractor is also providing training and technical assistance to the Transit program. The scope of this work includes ensuring requests for reimbursement of grant expenditures are submi􀀂ed 􀀁mely, and reconcilia􀀁ons of grant expenditures and reimbursements are completed 􀀁mely and accurately. The Airport Department is in the process of contrac􀀁ng with a vendor to assist with federal compliance and provide training for Airport staff on relevant Uniform Guidance requirements. The vendor’s scope of work will include helping with developing and documen􀀁ng policies and standard opera􀀁ng procedures for requests for reimbursement, and reconcilia􀀁on of expenditures and reimbursements.

Currently, City of Chico has language in its Purchasing Manual and purchasing procedures requiring a check through SAM.gov of any vendors entering into contract that are federally funded for Suspension and Disbarment. While this process is outlined and required, there has until recently been no documentation of the inquiry. The City has implemented the requirement to include language in all federally funded contracts that the vendor will abide by the Suspension and Disbarment rules, as well as those departments processing new agreements will be required to attest to checking SAM.gov for that vendor.

Over the past year, CAPNC has continued to make significant improvements to its fiscal practices, particularly in navigating the software conversion from an archaic, unsupported system to Sage Intacct. This new software has modernized and deployed the levels of internal controls that were previously missing due to inadequate fiscal personnel oversight and technical capability. Current staff have been trained under Sage Intacct and Wipfli consultants to properly track accounts payable (A/P), accounts receivable (A/R), payroll, and grant management, ensuring data integrity and compliance. Resulting journal entries are in place to bring system in alignment and current as of July 2024, alleviating any further discrepancies related to past staff and old software. The old system will be archived as required under retention. To further stabilize and formalize these improvements, a Certified Public Accountant will be added as a consulting CFO. This role supports the ongoing development of fiscal operations. Additionally, it is recognized that the payroll vendor, ADP, was initially slow to address issues with uploaded data when notified by CAPNC, responded officially after CAPNC alerted repeatedly that it had now elevated to an audit issue. This issue has since been remedied. Staff have shown marked improvement over previous legacy staff in documentation, accountability, and monitoring. Payroll services in general are able to provide real-time features and accountability for time, resulting in more accurate, reliable, and allocable time recording. Payroll records are reviewed, and time studies are performed for all staff to ensure the allocation methodology is appropriate, consistent, and aligned with staff performance. Wipfli Consulting is providing technical assistance over an additional contract period to update policies and procedures for the fiscal area, in accordance with Uniform Guidance, and allow for advance reporting, as well as provide CPA support. The curriculum includes comprehensive training for all administrative leadership staff, covering fiscal oversight, grants management, and compliance. Allocations are regularly reviewed by the leadership team to ensure appropriate methodology and consistency with grant expectations and regulations. Board members have access to the accounting software through a Board portal for further oversight, enhancing transparency and accountability.

Corrective Action Plan from College: This is submitted to Derrick Everhart, Director of Financial Aid, by the College Registrar Brooke Millsaps. In order to correct the need to have a monitoring mechanism in place, the College has taken the following actions: ● Warren Wilson College convened a group of stakeholders to review our exit and withdrawal procedures. This group included representatives from the following offices: Financial Aid, Registrar, tudent Accounts, Student Engagement, Office of the Provost. ● The group revised our procedures when a student indicates they want to leave the College. These revised procedures include the following: 1. Developed a specific chart to determine the classification of the student, the time of year of the action, and the circumstances of the action: See Corrective Action Plan for chart / table. 2. Removed a student's ability to complete the exit form once classes started in order to prevent an erroneous student exit 3. Implemented an Administrative Exit - census verification process . This allows the college the opportunity to verify through roster verification, work participation, and residential status if a student should be administratively exited. 4. As a result of this revised institutional procedure, the Office of the Registrar reviewed and revised its procedures regarding exits and withdrawals to ensure that we are documenting accurate information in the appropriate locations within Jenzabar. This will ensure that when we report data to the National Student Clearinghouse, the associated exits and withdrawal dates are in alignment. Management Response : The Director of Financial Aid concurs with this finding and noted while the College was out of compliance with the reporting timeframe, the College did make a substantial effort to complete the requirements and follow up with NSLDS and NSC to correct the students enrollment.

The City of Newton makes every effort to ensure that timesheets are submitted, signed, reviewed, and entered in the payroll system accurately and efficiently. Once timesheets are approved by supervisors they are sent to HR for processing. If at any time during this process the HR staff member entering the information is aware of missing approval or other information on the timesheet, they will verify the data with the supervisor and sign off on the timesheet in an effort to not delay the weekly timesheet processing. This will be notated on the timesheet for documentation purposes. Proposed Completion Date: Immediate and ongoing
