Finding Text

2024-005 (2023-006) – Equipment and Real Property Management (Material Weakness over Internal Controls over Compliance) (Repeated/Modified) Federal Program Information Federal Award Title and ALN: Airport Improvement Program, 20.106 Federal Awarding Agency: Department of Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration Federal Award ID Number: SAF-SWG-3-35-0037-051-2020 Federal Award Year: 2024 Condition: The City’s approved annual inventory was not complete. There was no information to identify the funding source of the equipment and/or property. Management’s Progress on Repeat Findings: Some progress made from prior year. Criteria: Per 2 CFR 200.303(a), the non-federal entity must establish and maintain effective internal control over the Federal award that provides reasonable assurance that the non-Federal entity is managing the Federal award in compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal award. These internal controls should be in compliance with guidance in “Standards for Internal Control in the Federal Government” issued by the Comptroller General of the United States or the “Internal Control Integrated Framework”, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Per 2 CFR 200.313(d)(1) Property records must be maintained that include a description of the property, a serial number or other identification number, the source of funding for the property (including the FAIN), who holds title, the acquisition date, and cost of the property, percentage of Federal participation in the project costs for the Federal award under which the property was acquired, the location, use and condition of the property, and any ultimate disposition data including the date of disposal and sale price of the property. Cause: Turnover in related positions resulted in delays in making revisions to the listing to incorporate information on Federal participation in the purchases. Questioned Cost: None. Effect: The City could dispose of federally funded equipment without following federal guidelines.
