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. Identification of a Repeat Finding: This is a repeat finding from the immediate previous audit, 2024-004. Questioned Costs: None. The finding represents a reporting issue; therefore, no questioned costs are applicable.

2025-001: Reporting (Significant Deficiency) Criteria: The OMB Uniform Guidance and contract with federal funding agency require that non-federal entities receiving federal awards establish and maintain internal control designed to reasonably ensure compliance with federal laws, regulations and program compliance requirements as follows: Section 2 CFR 200.512 of the Uniform Guidance states: I. General. (1) The audit must be completed and the data collection form described in paragraph (b) of this section and reporting package described in paragraph (c) of this section 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. If the due date falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or federal holiday, the reporting package is due the next business day. II. Data Collection. The FAC is the repository of record for Subpart F-Audit Requirements of this Part reporting packages and the data collection form. All federal agencies, pass-through entities and others interested in a reporting package and data collection form must obtain it by accessing the FAC. Cause: The audit package and data collection form were not submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse for the reporting year ended June 30, 2025, within 9 months after the audit period. Effect: Non-compliance with the Office of Management and Budget’s Uniform Guidance. Potential reduction or delay in federal and state funding as well as the effects of being placed on high-risk status by a federal and/or state agency. Questioned Costs: None. Repeat finding: No Recommendation: City should establish centralized controls, which includes the identification of all required reports and their due dates, effective controls over the preparation of reports, and a monitoring function to ensure that controls are in place and operating effectively for report submission. Management Response: Management agrees with the finding. The reporting package and Data Collection Form were not submitted by the required deadline. While the delay was primarily the result of significant staffing shortages within the Finance Department during the reporting period, management recognizes that it remained the City's responsibility to ensure timely compliance with federal reporting requirements. To address this issue, the City will implement a formal tracking process for all federal reporting requirements, maintain a compliance calendar, clearly assign responsibility for monitoring submission deadlines, and require management review prior to submission. These procedures are expected to strengthen internal controls, improve oversight of compliance deadlines, and ensure timely submission of future reporting packages in accordance with Uniform Guidance requirements.

Finding 2025-001 Federal assistance listing number and name: 10.415 Rural Rent Housing Loans Awards numbers and years: 2025 Federal agency: United States Department of Agriculture Compliance Requirement: Activities allowed or unallowed, allowable costs/ cash management, eligibility, equipment, period of performance, procurement, program income, reporting, special tests Questioned Costs: None Criteria: In accordance with 2 CFR §200.512(a), non-Federal entities that expend $750,000 or more in Federal awards during the fiscal year must submit the audit report to the FAC Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) 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. Additionally, program-specific requirements may mandate timely submission to other agencies, including Rural Development (RD). Condition and Context: The auditee did not submit the required audit reports to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) and Rural Development (RD) in a timely manner. Specifically: The 2023 Audit Report was not submitted to the FAC as required under 2 CFR Part 200, Subpart F. The 2024 Audit Report was submitted past the regulatory deadline to both the FAC and RD. Cause: The delays and omissions appear to have resulted from the prior auditor not being able to submit the Audit Report due to technical issues and the Rural Department not providing the loan statements in a timely manner. Effect: Failure to submit audit reports timely impedes the federal government’s oversight responsibilities, potentially affects the auditee's risk assessment, and may jeopardize continued funding eligibility. Recommendation: Management should establish and adhere to a documented internal timeline to ensure timely audit preparation and submission. This should include calendar reminders, assigned staff responsibilities, and periodic checks throughout the audit cycle. Communication with the auditor should begin early in the fiscal year to ensure deadlines are met.

Therefore, per 2 CFR second 200.520, the COmpany will not meet the low-risk auditee criteria for the next SIngle Audit that requires submission of the data collection form and reporting package. Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization develop specific procedures to ensure that the data collection form is submitted prior to February 28th reporting deadline or within 30 days of the receipt of the auditor's report. Response: The Organization will work with the audit firm to ensure the data collection form is submitted before the deadline in the future.

Condition: The Village met the requirements for a Single Audit and is required to submit its annual audited financial statements and single audit reporting requirements within 9 months of the Village's fiscal year end. The Village did not complete and submit its single audit by February 28, 2026. Criteria: The requirement in 2 CFR 200.512(a)(1) states that single audits are due to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within the earlier of 30 days after receipt of the auditor’s report or 9 months from the Village's fiscal year end. This reporting package, is required to be submitted electronically and includes the financial statements and a supplementary schedule of expenditures of federal awards, auditor’s reports, a summary schedule of prior audit findings and a corrective action plan, if necessary. Cause: The delay in the timely submission of the audited financial statements and single audit reporting requirements was primarily due to a combination of factors impacting the ability to complete the necessary procedures within the required timeframe.
Condition The Village of St. Anne (Village) did not file its Fiscal Year 2024 single audit with the Federal Audit Clearinghouse in a timely manner. The audit was filed 292 days late. Cause Miscommunication between the Village of St. Anne and its prior audit firm resulted in the late filing of the fiscal year 2024 single audit.

Auditees must electronically submit the required reporting package and data collection form within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receiving the auditor's report or nine months after the end of the audit period. For fiscal years beginning on or after October 1, 2024, the threshold was increased to $1,000,000.

Federal Program: U.S. Department of Agriculture: Water and Waste Disposal Systems for Rural Communities (10.760). Criteria: Per Title 2 CFR 200.512(d), "the data collection form must be submitted within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor's report, or nine months after the end of the audit period. Condition: The City did not file their Data Collection form for 2024 on time. Cause: The City's April 30, 2024 audit was not completed until August 15, 2025 resulting in the data collection form being filed September 3, 2025. This was the result of changing accounting software and timeliness of audit requests. Effect: The District is not in compliance with Single Audit Act of 1984 and Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200. Questioned Costs: None. Context: The report was filed as soon as the audit of the financial statements was complete, but this was after the reporting deadline. Repeat Finding: No. Recommendation: We recommend that all required filings be submitted timely according to the Single Audit Act of 1984 and Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations guidelines.

2025-003 Report Submission Compliance Criteria: According to the Uniform Guidance (2 CFR 200.512(a)(1)), a Single Audit’s required elements—including the audit report, reporting package, and Data Collection Form (SF-SAC)— must be submitted within 30 calendar days after the auditee receives the auditor’s reports or nine months after the end of the audit period, whichever is earlier. Condition: Per the Federal Audit Clearinghouse records, the Village’s Data Collection Form for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2024, was submitted on April 22, 2025, which is past the nine month deadline. This is deemed to be an instance of noncompliance with applicable reporting requirements. Cause: The delay occurred because the issuance of the financial statements was significantly postponed. This postponement caused a corresponding delay in the completion and issuance of the Single Audit report, which in turn resulted in late submission to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse. Effect: The late filing constitutes noncompliance with Uniform Guidance requirements, potentially impacting federal oversight and risking sanctions or additional monitoring by awarding agencies. Recommendation: We recommend the Village: 1. Implement procedures to ensure timely preparation and issuance of financial statements, as these drive the Single Audit timeline. 2. Establish a compliance calendar that tracks both financial statement and audit report deadlines, including the nine-month submission requirement. 3. Assign responsibility to a designated compliance officer to monitor progress and escalate delays promptly. Views of Responsible Officials: Management agrees with the finding.
Federal Audit Clearinghouse Submissions Criteria: In accordance with 2 CFR Part 200, Subpart F (2 CFR 200.512), single audits are due to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse thirty days after receipt of the auditors’ reports but are considered on time if submitted within nine months after their fiscal period end date. Condition: The Organization has not submitted its audit package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse in a timely manner for the previous two fiscal years. Cause: Controls are not in place to ensure the Organization has submitted their audit package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse in a timely manner. Effect: The Organization is in noncompliance with specific requirements of 2 CFR Part 200, Subpart F (2 CFR 200.512). Identification of Repeat Finding: 2024-001.

#2025-002: Grant Program: All Programs Included in the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards – Assistance Listing # – Various Condition: The Organization did not submit the Data Collection Form (DCF) and reporting package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) within the required timeframe for both fiscal years ended February 29, 2024, and February 28, 2023. Criteria: Per 2 CFR §200.512(b), the Organization must submit the completed DCF and the reporting package to FAC within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the Auditors’ report(s), or nine months after the end of the audit period. Context: The DCF for the year ended February 28, 2024 was not timely filed during the year ended February 29, 2025. At the time of completion of the audit for the year ended February 29, 2025, the deadline for submission of November 29, 2025, had passed and the DCF is considered not timely filed. Cause: The late submission was due to delays in finalizing the audits. Effect: Failure to submit the DCF on time may delay Federal Agencies’ access to audit results and could impact the Organization’s eligibility for future funding. Additionally, an untimely filed DCF results in high-risk auditee status. Recommendation: We recommend the Organization implement procedures to ensure timely submission of the DCF and reporting packing, including establishing internal deadlines ahead of the federal due date for audit completion. Management Response: See Corrective Action Plan.

Section III. Federal Award Findings and Questioned Costs 2024-001 Reporting Information on Federal Program Assisting Listing Number 21.027, U.S. Department of the Treasury, Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds American Rescue Plan Act Criteria or Specific Requirement According to 2 CFR Part 200.512, auditees are required to submit the audit reporting package, including the Single Audit report, to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within 30 days after receipt of the auditors report(s), or nine months after the end of the audit period, whichever comes first. Condition The auditee did not submit the audit reporting package for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 within the required time frame. The Single Audit report was submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse on April 4, 2025, which is beyond the required deadline of September 30, 2024. Questioned Costs: $0 Context: The reporting package was submitted 186 days past the deadline. Cause - The delay was due to a lack of effective internal controls and oversight to ensure timely submission of the audit reporting package. Effect or Potential Effect - Late submission of the audit reporting package may result in non-compliance with federal requirements, potentially affecting the auditees eligibility for future federal funding and subjecting the auditee to increased scrutiny or penalties. Recommendation - We recommend that the YMCA establish and implement a formal process to monitor and ensure timely submission of the audit reporting package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse. This process should include setting internal deadlines and assigning responsibility to specific personnel for compliance monitoring. Views of Responsible Officials Management has reviewed the finding related to the late filing of the audit report to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse and has developed the following plan to address this finding and ensure compliance going forward: 1. Root Cause Analysis Previous to 2023, the last time the YMCA was required to have a Single Audit was the year ended December 31, 2012. Because this was a new process to the YMCA, we were unaware that we needed to submit the Single Audit to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse. In past years, the independent audit firm initiated the e-filing process on our behalf. 2. Action Steps The YMCA will develop a year-end Federal Awards checklist to include all necessary preparation steps including but not limited to preparation of the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA); corresponding audit documentation; and procedures for filing the completed Single Audit to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse including confirmation that independent auditors have reviewed and certified the submission to the Clearinghouse. 3. Responsible Parties The Controller will complete the checklist and perform the filing to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse and the CFO will review and approve. 4. Timeline Submission of the Single Audit to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse as well as completion, review, and approval of the checklist will be done within 30 days of receipt of the final Single Audit report. 5. Monitoring & Evaluation The checklist and approval process will be monitored on an annual basis to ensure ongoing compliance and effectiveness of this corrective action plan.
Finding No. 2024-001 – Late Submission of 2023 Data Collection Form to the FAC Criteria: Under 2 CFR §200.512, auditees are required to submit the reporting package, including the Single Audit report, to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) within 30 calendar days of receiving the auditor’s report and no later than nine months after the end of the fiscal year. Condition and context: The Organization did not submit its 2023 Single Audit reporting package to the FAC within the required timeframe. The submission occurred after the nine-month deadline. Cause: Management oversight and misunderstanding of the final submission process requirements contributed to the delay in submitting the Single Audit package to the FAC. Effect: The Organization was not in compliance with the federal reporting requirements and could potentially jeopardize its low-risk auditee status for future periods. Questioned Costs: None. Identification as a Repeat Finding: N/A. Recommendation: We recommend that management implement procedures to ensure that all required audit reporting packages are reviewed, completed, and submitted to the FAC timely in accordance with Uniform Guidance requirements. Views of Responsible Official: Management agrees with the finding. See Corrective Action Plan.

Finding 2024-003: U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Mortgage Insurance for the Purchase or Refinancing of Existing Multifamily Housing Projects (Section 223(f)/207) Statement of Condition: The Organization did not submit the data collection forms and required reporting package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) by the required due date for the single audit for the year ending December 31, 2023. Criteria: The Uniform Guidance, 2 CFR Part 200 Section 200.512(d), Report Submission, requires any non-federal entity that expends Federal awards which must be audited under Subpart F of 2 CFR to electronically submit to the FAC the data collection form and the reporting package described in 2 CFR Part 200 Section 200.512. Additionally, 2 CFR Section 200.512(a) requires the reporting package and data collection form to be submitted to the FAC the earlier of 30 calendar days after the reports are received from the auditors or nine months after the end of the audit period. Effect: Noncompliance with Uniform Guidance regulations. Cause: The completion of the audit for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 was delayed due to the absence of signatures. Context: A test was performed to review the two most recent fiscal year audits performed under the Uniform Guidance and the required data collection forms were submitted to the FAC to determine if the Corporation qualified as a low-risk auditee. A single audit was performed under the Uniform Guidance for the year ending December 31, 2023, however, the data collection form was not submitted to the FAC within the required due dates. Questioned Costs: $0 Recommendation: We recommend the board of directors and management ensure that the audit and data collection forms are completed timely and the data collection form and required reporting package are submitted electronically to the FAC each fiscal year going forward by the required due date.
