MATERIAL WEAKNESSREPEAT

The District does not have management personnel with the necessary expertise to prepare the schedules of expenditures of federal and state awards in accordance with the Uniform Guidance and State Single Audit Guidelines. Due to limited resources, management has decided to accept certain risks relevant to single audit reporting and relies on the auditor to assist with the preparation of the District?s schedules of expenditures of federal and state awards. Criteria: The District should have proper controls in place over the preparation of the schedules of expenditures of federal and state awards to ensure accurate reporting. Cause: Management relies on the auditor to assist with the preparation of the schedules of awards. Effect: Because management relies on the auditor to assist with the preparation of the schedules of expenditures of federal and state awards, the District?s system of internal control may not prevent, detect, or correct misstatements in the schedules. Auditor?s Recommendation: The auditor will continue to work with the District, providing information and training where needed, to make the District?s personnel more knowledgeable about its responsibility for the schedules of expenditures of federal and state awards. Grantee Response: The control deficiency has been discussed with the District?s management and they acknowledge their responsibility for the schedules of awards. The District accepts responsibility for the schedules of awards. Due to the technical nature of preparing the schedules of awards, and due to limited resources, the District does not anticipate the need for this assistance to change in the foreseeable future.
