AI Summary

  • Core Issue: The County failed to submit any of the 15 required reports to the State as outlined in the grant agreement.
  • Impacted Requirements: The County did not meet quarterly, semi-annual, and annual reporting obligations, risking increased scrutiny from the State.
  • Recommended Follow-Up: Implement a reporting checklist and cross-train staff to ensure compliance with reporting requirements moving forward.

Finding Text

Criteria: Grant compliance requires the County to submit to the State various reports throughout the term of the agreement. Based on terms of the agreement in Exhibit D item 22, the County must submit quarterly financial, activity and program income reports, semi-annual labor and compliance reports and annual performance reports. Condition: During our test of the reporting requirements, we determined that the County did not submit the required reports under Reporting of the Compliance Supplement. Questioned costs: None Context: The County’s agreement with the State requires that various reports are submitted at various times during the year. Based on the agreement, the County should submit a total of 15 reports during the year, however, none of the reports were submitted during the year. Cause: Due to an empty employment position at the time of monitoring, the County was unaware of the reporting requirements and therefore was unable to complete them. Effect: Not following through on the reporting requirements may cause the State to require increased monitoring or result in increased challenges in obtaining funding due to continued noncompliance. Repeat Finding: 2023-003 Recommendation: CLA recommends the County develop procedures, such as reporting checklist to ensure that reporting requirements are tracked and met. Additionally, CLA recommends that the County perform cross training with employees to ensure that knowledge is shared among the team members. Views of responsible officials: There is no disagreement with the audit finding.
