Finding 2025-001: Rural Rental Housing Loans Assistance Listing Number: 10.415 U.S. Department of Agriculture (Repeat of Finding 2024-001) Compliance Requirement: Eligibility, Program Income Type of finding: Internal Control Over Compliance (significant deficiency) Recommendation: The Organization should strengthen its internal controls with adopted policies and procedures to ensure a review process is established through adequate segregation of duties. The Organization should consider assessing and realigning the duties and responsibilities of the Executive Director, Administrative Assistant, and Alamosa Property Manager to provide for a review process of tenant eligibility determinations and the monthly housing assistance payment requests for the Sierra Vista Alamosa Housing Complex. Action Taken: This finding was from the actions of the pervious on-site manager, concerning the Alamosa Complex only. Sierra Vista/Alamosa Complex has already implemented the internal control concerning compliance in house. Priscilla and Alonzo will make sure that all internal compliance issues are segregated and check by at least 2 persons in the office, and if needed, the Executive Director can request viewing of internal control procedures as well. Alonzo and Priscilla prepare and review along with signatures of the review and approval dates of internal affairs. "This institution is an equal opportunity provider." If there are questions regarding this plan, please call the responsible party at (719)852-5505. Sincerely yours, Corinna Garcia Executive Director Monte Vista Community Center Housing Authority, Inc.
