2020-011 Timely Grant Draws Material Weakness Condition: Grant dollars were not drawn in a timely fashion during the year to cover current grant expenditures.

2020-011 Timely Grant Draws Material Weakness Condition: Grant dollars were not drawn in a timely fashion during the year to cover current grant expenditures. The Housing Authority’s grant funded cost reimbursable program was carrying in excess of 60 days operating capital in grants receivable. Criteria: The Housing Authority does not have written policies to address the timeliness of grant draw procedures. Grant funds should be drawn as grant expenditures occur. Carrying anything in excess of 60 days operating capital in grants receivable is considered untimely and indicates that the expenditures carried within these grant funded cost reimbursable programs are being “floated” by the general fund. 2 CFR section 200.305 of the Uniform Guidance states that “For non-Federal entities other than states, payments methods must minimize the time elapsing between the transfer of funds from the United States Treasury or the pass-through entity and the disbursement by the non-Federal entity whether the payment is made by electronic funds transfer, or issuance or redemption of checks, warrants, or payment by other means.” Cause: Lack of a written grant draw policy and procedures as well as a lack of staff “hands-on” training in those necessary areas. Effect: The Housing Authority’s general fund dollars and liabilities are being used to carry (“float”) these grant program expenditures until the grant funds are actually received. Recommendation: The Housing Authority should adopt written grant draw policies into its financial policies and procedures manual. Financials should be reviewed monthly, and drawdowns made as needed.

Finding 2019-007 Lack of Internal Control Over Cash Management Federal Agencies: U.S. Department of the Interior and U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Federal Programs: Consolidated Tribal Government (CTG) and Indian Self-Determination (ISD), respectively CFDA Numbers: 15.021 and 93.441, respectively Award Numbers: A16AV00375 and A19AV00503 (CTG), and 243-12-0006 (ISD), respectively Award Years: 2016 and 2019 (CTG), and 2019 and 2020 (ISD) Type of Finding: Material weakness in internal control over compliance and material noncompliance. Criteria: The requirement for cash management, as contained in 2 CFR 200.305, states advanced cash payments must be used only for applicable grant programs. Condition and Context: Procedures related to cash management were inadequate to ensure that funds drawn down were not used for other grant expenditures. The Community’s cash balances at December 31, 2019 were $48,998 and total unearned revenue was $1,661,466, leading to a cash shortfall of $1,612,468. This resulted from the temporary borrowing of federal funds to pay expenses in the General Fund and other federal award programs. Deferred revenue as of December 31, 2019 in the CTG Program was $91,645 and $885,809 in the ISD Program. Cause: Lack of internal controls over cash management. Effect: The Community was not in compliance with 2 CFR 200.305 related to cash management requirements. Deposits were used to fund other programs of the Community. Questioned costs: $1,612,468, which is the shortfall between cash balances and unearned revenue balances. Repeat finding: This is a repeat of Finding 2018-006; therefore, we believe this to be a systemic issue. Recommendation: We recommend the Community monitor grant budgets and drawdowns throughout the year and ensure that program funds are not being lent or borrowed between programs in an effort to ensure that unearned revenue balances do not exceed total cash. Management Response: Management agrees with this finding, see Corrective Action Plan.

Finding 2019-007 Lack of Internal Control Over Cash Management Federal Agencies: U.S. Department of the Interior and U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Federal Programs: Consolidated Tribal Government (CTG) and Indian Self-Determination (ISD), respectively CFDA Numbers: 15.021 and 93.441, respectively Award Numbers: A16AV00375 and A19AV00503 (CTG), and 243-12-0006 (ISD), respectively Award Years: 2016 and 2019 (CTG), and 2019 and 2020 (ISD) Type of Finding: Material weakness in internal control over compliance and material noncompliance. Criteria: The requirement for cash management, as contained in 2 CFR 200.305, states advanced cash payments must be used only for applicable grant programs. Condition and Context: Procedures related to cash management were inadequate to ensure that funds drawn down were not used for other grant expenditures. The Community’s cash balances at December 31, 2019 were $48,998 and total unearned revenue was $1,661,466, leading to a cash shortfall of $1,612,468. This resulted from the temporary borrowing of federal funds to pay expenses in the General Fund and other federal award programs. Deferred revenue as of December 31, 2019 in the CTG Program was $91,645 and $885,809 in the ISD Program. Cause: Lack of internal controls over cash management. Effect: The Community was not in compliance with 2 CFR 200.305 related to cash management requirements. Deposits were used to fund other programs of the Community. Questioned costs: $1,612,468, which is the shortfall between cash balances and unearned revenue balances. Repeat finding: This is a repeat of Finding 2018-006; therefore, we believe this to be a systemic issue. Recommendation: We recommend the Community monitor grant budgets and drawdowns throughout the year and ensure that program funds are not being lent or borrowed between programs in an effort to ensure that unearned revenue balances do not exceed total cash. Management Response: Management agrees with this finding, see Corrective Action Plan.

Finding No.: 2019-009 Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services CFDA Program: 93.243 Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Projects of Regional and National Significance Award Number: 5U79SP020710-04 Area: Cash Management Questioned Costs: $-0- Criteria: In accordance with 2 CFR Section 200.305(b)(1), non-Federal entities other than states, payment methods must minimize the time elapsing between the transfer of funds from the United States Treasury or the pass-through entity and the disbursement by the non-Federal entity whether the payment is made by electronic funds transfer, or issuance or redemption of checks, warrants, or payment by other means. Condition: Of five subrecipient disbursements tested for cash management requirement, aggregating $175,000 of a total population of $468,864, for five (or 100%), documentation of procedures performed to ensure that the time elapsed between the transfer of federal funds to the subrecipients and the disbursement of such funds by the subrecipients were not provided. No questioned costs as amounts questioned at Finding No. 2019-012, Condition 1 are for the same subrecipients, for which the total FY2019 expenditures under the subrecipient agreements were questioned. Cause: CHCC did not enforce monitoring controls over compliance with applicable cash management requirements over subrecipients. Finding No.: 2019-009, continued Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services CFDA Program: 93.243 Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Projects of Regional and National Significance Award Number: 5U79SP020710-04 Area: Cash Management Questioned Costs: $-0- Effect: CHCC is in incompliance with applicable cash management requirements over subrecipients. Recommendation: CHCC should establish and implement procedures to ensure that the time elapsing between the transfer of Federal funds to the subrecipient and the disbursement of such funds for program purposes by the subrecipient is minimized. Views of Responsible Officials: CHCC’s Corrective Action Plan provides a detailed rationale for disagreement with the finding. Auditor Response: Documentations of procedures performed to ensure that the time elapsed between the transfer of federal funds to the subrecipients and the disbursement of such funds by the subrecipients were not provided. In addition, initial draft reports were provided to CHCC on 09/06/24 and 09/24/24. It was also agreed during the 09/06/24 and 10/04/24 meetings for CHCC to provide corresponding underlying accounting records to resolve the finding; however, no documentations were provided within the agreed timeline. Accordingly, finding is sustained.
