Significant Deficiency Non-Compliance Finding 2023-003 Criteria: In accordance with Title 2 CFR 200.512(a)(1), Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance), auditees are required to submit the data collection form and the reporting package to the GAC within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor’s report or nine months after the end of the audit period. For any 2023 submissions with fiscal periods ending between January 1, 2023 and September 30, 2023, requirement 2 CFR 200.512(1) stating that single audits are due to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse 30 days after receipt of the auditor’s report(s), is waived. These audits will be considered on time if they are submitted within nine months after their fiscal period end date. Condition: The County’s data collection form and reporting package for the year ended June 30, 2023, were not submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) within a timely manner. Effect: The County’s data collection form and reporting package were not submitted, as required under Title 2 CFR 200.512(a)(1), Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Cause: Due to a delay in the audit, the timing of the Uniform Guidance audit was delayed. The County did not submit the data collection form to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) on time. Questioned Costs: None. The finding represents a reporting issue; therefore, no questioned costs are applicable. Recommendation: Measures should be taken to ensure the audit package and the data collection form are submitted within 30 days after receipt of the auditor’s report or nine months after the end of the fiscal year end date, whichever comes first. Name of Contact Person: Meagan O’Neal, Finance Director Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: Management concurs with the condition noted above. Please refer to the Corrective Action Plan of this report.
2023-002 Timely Submission of Single Audit Report and Inaccurate Performance Report Numbers Reported Assistance Listing Number: 16.575 Federal Agency: United States Department of Justice Federal Award Identification: Unknown Type of Finding: Material Weakness Compliance Requirement: Reporting Criteria: According to the OMB Compliance Supplement, Part 6 and 2 CFR 200.512 (a)(1), non-federal entities that expend $750,000 or more in federal awards during a fiscal year are required to submit a complete and accurate Data Collection Form (DCF) and a Single Audit report package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor’s report or nine months after the end of the audit period. The DCF is a critical element in ensuring transparency and accountability for the use of federal funds. Additionally, per the Uniform Guidance (200.302) nonfederal entities are required to maintain effective internal controls and proper records to support the financial and performance data used in reporting to federal agencies. This includes maintaining records and documentation to substantiate reported performance and financial information to ensure accuracy, completeness and reliability. Condition: The Agency did not submit the required DCF for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, by the required deadline. The Agency also submitted inaccurate reporting for the following grants and timeframes: DV20201438 (4th Quarter), DV22221438 (1st & 2nd Quarters), RC21321438 (3rd Quarter), and RC22331438 (2nd & 3rd Quarter). Cause of Condition: The Agency failed to appropriately monitor and assess its federal expenditures, resulting in the oversight of surpassing the threshold that necessitates a single audit. As a consequence, they have missed the deadline for submission of the required DCF. Also, the Agency's database is not locked from editing and is susceptible to changes leading to inaccuracies when regenerating the report. Counselors responsible for recording their intake numbers are not submitting their numbers on time resulting in untimely recording. The Agency does not have a formal process or procedure in place to ensure that supporting documentation and schedules used in the preparation of performance reports are retained and organized for future reference and audit purposes. Potential Effect of Condition: Failure to submit the DCF on time resulted in noncompliance with federal regulations, which could lead to the potential withholding of future federal funding or other sanctions. It also undermines the Agency's compliance status and may affect the entity's standing with grantor agencies and other stakeholders. Without proper documentation, there is an increased risk of inaccurate or incomplete performance reporting, which may lead to noncompliance with grant requirements. Additionally, the lack of substantiation for reported amounts impairs the Agency's ability to demonstrate compliance with grant objectives and may result in potential audit findings. Questioned Costs: Not quantifiable. Recommendation: We recommend that the Agency implements stronger internal controls and procedures to ensure timely submission of the DCF. This could include designating a responsible party for tracking and submitting the DCF, creating a timeline and checklist for required submissions, and conducting periodic reviews to ensure compliance with deadlines. Additionally, the Agency should provide training to relevant staff on the importance of meeting federal compliance requirements. The client has already implemented a new database system to avoid the cumbersomeness of generating accurate numbers from the old system; however, we recommend a designated employee to ensure counselors are inputting their performance numbers on time. We also recommend a quarterly review of performance numbers before they are reported. Views of Responsible Official: Management agrees with the finding and will implement corrective action.

It also undermines the Agency's compliance status and may affect the entity's standing with grantor agencies and other stakeholders. Without proper documentation, there is an increased risk of inaccurate or incomplete performance reporting, which may lead to noncompliance with grant requirements. Additionally, the lack of substantiation for reported amounts impairs the Agency's ability to demonstrate compliance with grant objectives and may result in potential audit findings. Questioned Costs: Not quantifiable. Recommendation: We recommend that the Agency implements stronger internal controls and procedures to ensure timely submission of the DCF. This could include designating a responsible party for tracking and submitting the DCF, creating a timeline and checklist for required submissions, and conducting periodic reviews to ensure compliance with deadlines. Additionally, the Agency should provide training to relevant staff on the importance of meeting federal compliance requirements. The client has already implemented a new database system to avoid the cumbersomeness of generating accurate numbers from the old system; however, we recommend a designated employee to ensure counselors are inputting their performance numbers on time. We also recommend a quarterly review of performance numbers before they are reported. Views of Responsible Official: Management agrees with the finding and will implement corrective action.
2023-002 Timely Submission of Single Audit Report and Inaccurate Performance Report Numbers Reported Assistance Listing Number: 16.575 Federal Agency: United States Department of Justice Federal Award Identification: Unknown Type of Finding: Material Weakness Compliance Requirement: Reporting Criteria: According to the OMB Compliance Supplement, Part 6 and 2 CFR 200.512 (a)(1), non-federal entities that expend $750,000 or more in federal awards during a fiscal year are required to submit a complete and accurate Data Collection Form (DCF) and a Single Audit report package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor’s report or nine months after the end of the audit period. The DCF is a critical element in ensuring transparency and accountability for the use of federal funds. Additionally, per the Uniform Guidance (200.302) nonfederal entities are required to maintain effective internal controls and proper records to support the financial and performance data used in reporting to federal agencies. This includes maintaining records and documentation to substantiate reported performance and financial information to ensure accuracy, completeness and reliability. Condition: The Agency did not submit the required DCF for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, by the required deadline. The Agency also submitted inaccurate reporting for the following grants and timeframes: DV20201438 (4th Quarter), DV22221438 (1st & 2nd Quarters), RC21321438 (3rd Quarter), and RC22331438 (2nd & 3rd Quarter). Cause of Condition: The Agency failed to appropriately monitor and assess its federal expenditures, resulting in the oversight of surpassing the threshold that necessitates a single audit. As a consequence, they have missed the deadline for submission of the required DCF. Also, the Agency's database is not locked from editing and is susceptible to changes leading to inaccuracies when regenerating the report. Counselors responsible for recording their intake numbers are not submitting their numbers on time resulting in untimely recording.

Significant Deficiency in Internal Controls and Noncompliance over Reporting Repeat Finding: Yes; 2022-007 Condition: The City's audited financial statements and the data collection form were not completed within nine months after the end of the audit period. Criteria: In accordance with 2 CFR § 200.512, the audit must be completed, and the data collection form must be submitted within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor's report(s), or nine months after the end of the audit period. Cause: The City does not maintain a centralized grant accounting function or standardized policies and procedures, including requirements to periodically submit and reconcile expenditures; instead, each department maintains its own grant information. The lack of submission of grant documents and accurate information by the various agencies and departments to Finance weakens internal controls over grant reporting and hinders the ability of Finance to accurately prepare the Schedule timely. Effect: The City was not in compliance with Uniform Guidance. Questioned Costs: None. Recommendation: We recommend that Finance establish policies and procedures to ensure that the Federal funds are properly identified and reported accurately in the Schedule in accordance with Uniform Guidance requirements. We also recommend that individuals responsible for administering Federal assistance programs with the City receive training in grant administration.
