SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCYREPEAT OF 2021-002OTHER MATTERS

During the period of affordability (i.e., the period for which the nonfederal entity must maintain subsidized housing) for HOME assisted rental housing, the participating jurisdiction must perform on-site inspections to determine compliance with property standards and verify the information submitted by the owners no less than (a) every three years for projects containing one to four units, (b) every two years for projects containing five to 25 units, and (c) every year for projects containing 26 or more units. The participating jurisdiction must perform on-site inspections of rental housing occupied by tenants receiving HOME-assisted tenant-based rental assistance to determine compliance with housing quality standards (24 CFR sections 92.209(i), 92.251(f), and 92.504(d)). When testing the housing quality standards requirement, it was noted that no inspections took place during 2022. By not performing the required inspections, the City is in noncompliance with the applicable sections noted above. In addition, the property standards that must be met and reported could potentially be to code or within the required guidelines. We recommend the City inspect all required HOME assisted rental housing in the timeframe allotted per the specifications of the housing.

OTHER MATTERS

Under the requirements of the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (Pub. L. No. 109-282), as amended by Section 6202 of Public Law 110-252, hereafter referred as the ?Transparency Act? that are codified in 2 CFR Part 170, recipients (i.e., direct recipients) of grants or cooperative agreements are required to report first-tier subawards of $30,000 or more to the Transparency Act Subaward Reporting System (FSRS). Key elements to be reported include: Subaward Name, Subaward DUNS #, Amount of Subaward, Subaward Obligation/Action Date, Date of Report Submission, Subaward Number, Subaward Project Description, and Subaward Names and Compensation of Highly Compensated Officers. When testing the subawards administered by the City, it was noted some of the subawards were not reported to FSRS in a timely manner. Subawards were properly reported during the months, however the ones below were inadvertently left off and reported in a subsequent report at a later date: "See Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs for chart/table". By not reporting all subawards to FSRS in a timely manner, the City is in noncompliance with the Transparency Act, and could ultimately miss reporting required information. We recommend the City comply with the Transparency Act and report all subawards granted with federal money in the proper periods.

When testing the housing quality standards requirement, it was noted that no inspections took place during 2021. A waiver for inspections was issued, due to restrictions in place from COVID-19, however that waiver ended March 31, 2021. By not performing the required inspections, the City is in noncompliance with the applicable sections noted above.
