The Organization funded its reserve for replacement account in the amount of $48,000 during the year ended December 31, 2025. This amount meets the annual funding requirement and reduces the cumulative underfunded amount. However, the reserve for replacement account is underfunded by $47,691 as of December 31, 2025, due to the cumulative effect of underfunding the reserve in previous years. Criteria: As required by the Regulatory Agreement with HUD, the Organization must fund a reserve for replacement account in the amount of $30,005 on an annual basis. Cause: The Organization did not possess adequate cash flow to meet the requirement in previous years. Effect: The reserve for replacement account was underfunded during the years ended December 31, 2017 through 2021. During those years, the Organization was not in compliance with the reserve for replacement requirement as stated in the Regulatory Agreement. As of December 31, 2025, the reserve for replacement account was underfunded by a total of $47,691. Recommendation: As cash flow allows, we recommend that the Organization continue making additional payments to the reserve for replacement account to correct the cumulative underfunded amount.

REPEAT OF 2022-002OTHER MATTERS

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Organization requested retroactive adjustments on their 2022 Housing Assistance Payment (HAP) voucher requests to account for the increase in contract rent per unit that was not appropriately requested in 2021. The Organization mistakenly requested these adjustments twice, and therefore, received subsidy revenue from HUD in excess of what they were entitled to. As of December 31, 2023, the Organization had not contacted HUD to rectify the situation. Criteria: Internal controls should be in place to ensure the Organization is utilizing the proper contract rental rate in the monthly HAP vouchers, and to ensure the amounts received per tenant do not exceed the maximum amount allowed. The Organization should have contacted HUD to evaluate if there is an obligation to return the excess rent subsidies that were received during the year ended December 31, 2022. Cause: Human error during 2022 in incorporating the contract rent increase adjustments into the monthly HAP voucher requests submitted to HUD. Effect: The Organization requested and received $12,098 more of HUD rent subsidies than they were entitled to during the year ended December 31, 2022. Recommendation: We recommend the Organization contact HUD to evaluate if there is an obligation to return the excess rent subsidies that were received during the year ended December 31, 2022.

SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCYOTHER MATTERS

We reviewed five tenant files and noted one instance in which a tenant?s adjusted gross income was calculated by incorrectly using life insurance premiums as a medical expense deduction. Criteria: To ensure that assisted tenants pay rents commensurate with their ability to pay, organizations are responsible to conduct annual recertifications of family income and then recompute the tenants? rents and assistance payments provided by HUD based on the information gathered. Per HUD guidelines, tenant rent is the greater of 30% of monthly adjusted income or 10% of monthly gross income. In determining a tenant?s adjusted income, eligible medical expenses that exceed three percent of annual income are deducted from gross income. Per HUD guidelines, life insurance premiums are not considered eligible medical expenses. Cause: An oversight of HUD guidelines regarding eligible medical expenses. Effect: A tenant was charged a monthly rent amount lower than the correctly calculated amount. Recommendation: We recommend the Organization review its controls and implement procedures to ensure tenants? rent and rental assistance payments are calculated in accordance with HUD guidelines.

During our review of the wait list, we identified the following inaccuracies: 1) we noticed that two tenants who moved in during the year ended December 31, 2019 did not appear on the wait list, 2) we noticed two other tenants who moved in during the year ended December 31, 2019 appeared on the wait list, but instead of being marked as ?moved-in,? they were marked as ?removed,? and 3) we noticed dates in the ?removed/rejected date? column for applicants who were not intended to be removed from the list. Cause: Human error in maintaining Excel wait list. Effect: The wait list contained inaccuracies and did not provide an auditable, accurate record of applicant additions, selections, and rejections. Recommendation: We recommend the Organization review its controls and implement procedures to ensure the wait list is accurate, up to date, and provides an auditable record of applicant history and activity.

Criteria: As required by the HUD Occupancy Manual, the Organization is required to maintain an accurate, up-to-date wait list to ensure that applicants are appropriately and fairly selected for the next available unit. Whenever a change is made in the wait list, an action is taken, or an activity specific to an applicant occurs, a notation must be made on the wait list. The goal of the annotation is to provide an auditable record of applicant additions, selections, withdrawals, and rejections. Independent reviewers looking at the wait list should be able to: 1) find an applicant on the wait list, 2) readily confirm that an applicant was housed at the appropriate time, and 3) trace various actions taken with respect to a family?s application for tenancy. Condition: During our review of the wait list, we identified the following inaccuracies: 1) we noticed that two tenants who moved in during the year ended December 31, 2019 did not appear on the wait list, 2) we noticed two other tenants who moved in during the year ended December 31, 2019 appeared on the wait list, but instead of being marked as ?moved-in,? they were marked as ?removed,? and 3) we noticed dates in the ?removed/rejected date? column for applicants who were not intended to be removed from the list.

Recommendation: We recommend the Organization review its controls and implement procedures to ensure the wait list is accurate, up to date, and provides an auditable record of applicant history and activity.

Corrective Action Plan

Corrective Action Plan: We will utilize a multi-layer approach. We will create a Bound Hardcover Book for the waitlist, consistent with HUD guidelines. Pre-application process will now require applicants to submit full income to have income level prior to moving to next step to ensure waitlist applicants meets income guidelines. This will ensure we have 20 residents who meet the 30% or less of area median income (AMI) and 5 residents who meet the 50% or less of AMI. Property Manager will do initial approval. Assistant Manager will review and do final approval prior to move-in. The Grant Compliance team will do quarterly reviews of waitlist and issue a report of findings to the Executive Director, Deputy Program Director and CFO.
