Finding Text

Finding 2022 – 001: Data Collection Form Submission Condition: The FY2022 data collection form and audit package were not submitted timely. Criteria: As required by the Office of Management and Budget, auditees are required to submit a completed data collection form and audit package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse on or before the earlier of 30 days after receipt of the auditor's report or nine months after the end of the audit period. During 2022, this requirement was due on September 30, 2023. Cause: The lack of meeting the applicable reporting requirements was largely due to issues associated with determination of federal funding expenditures on projects. Effect: The Village is at risk of jeopardizing the continued funding provided by the federal agencies. Recommendation: We recommend the Village implement policies and procedures related to the Uniform Guidance reporting requirements. Corrective Action Plan: The Finance Director, along with staff, will review all Grant Agreements to determine the type of funding and evaluate the reporting requirements of all grants.
