Criteria: 2 CFR § 200.302(b)(6) requires that each non-Federal entity must provide for written procedures to implement the requirements of 2 CFR § 200.305 Payment.
Condition: We noted that the City did not have written procedures to implement the requirements of 2 CFR § 200.305 Payment during fiscal year 2022.
Cause: The City was not aware of the requirement to have written procedures to implement the requirements of 2 CFR § 200.305 Payment.
Effect: Failure to have written procedures to ensure the compliance with the 2 CFR § 200.305 Payment could result in federal award drawdown requests by the City to be overstated as to immediate cash flow needs, noncompliance with Uniform Guidance requirements, and terms and conditions of the Federal award.
