N/A Summary of Finding:
Significant Deficiency in internal control over major programs Repeat Finding?
No
Condition The District did not submit the single audit reporting package and related data collection form by the required deadline.
Criteria The Uniform Guidance section 500.512 states: "...The audit must be completed and the data collection form....and reporting package....must be submitted within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor’s reports, or nine months after the end of the audit period."
Cause The District experienced turnover in positions responsible for overseeing the single audit.
Effect The District is not in compliance with the requirements of the Uniform Guidance.
Recommendation We recommend that the District monitor federal grant expenditures and if it is expected that expenditures will exceed $750,000 ($1,000,000 in FY2026), the District procure audit services promptly. Further, for major programs supporting documentation should be reviewed to determine if any corrections need to be made or additional support need to be obtained.
