Unified School District Number 214Local Government

SIGNIFICANT DEFICENCY and NONCOMPLIANCE Equipment/Real Property Management Condition: Pursuant to the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Title 2 Grants and Agreements, Subpart D Post Federal Award Requirements, Section 200.303 “the non-federal entity must establish and maintain effective internal control over the Federal aware that provides reasonable assurance that the non-Federal entity is managing the Federal award in compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal award.” Condition: When investigating the controls and compliance related to equipment management, we became aware that the District does not have a inventory tracking managmenet system in place for non-technology items. Cause: The controls related to equipment maintenance for Education Stabilization Fund are non-existent. Effect: There is no internal control related to non-technology equipment maintenance. Recommendations: The Board of Directors, the Director and key positions of management should adequately document internal control procedures for equipment inventory, log maintenance, and dispositions requirements consistent with 2 CFR sections 200.313(c) through (e). Board should then periodically check that all procedures agreed upon are operational and effective, and adjust procedures as needed. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: The District agrees with the finding. See separate document for planned corrective actions.

FINDING 2022-001 SIGNIFICANT DEFICENCY and MATERIAL NONCOMPLIANCE Suspension and Debarment Condition: District did not verify that an entity with which it planned to enter into a covered transaction was not debarred, suspended or otherwise excluded as required by board policy and federal guidelines. (2 CFR sections 200.212 and 200.318(h); 2 CFR section 180.300; 48 CFR section 52.209-6) Criteria: Recommended Procedures Cause: During the course of the audit, we determined there exists a high reliance upon key positions of management to operate the procurement process without sufficient third-party review or involvement. Effect: The District entered into a covered transaction with Central Consolidated, Inc. without verifying they were not debarred, suspended or otherwise excluded. Recommendations: The Board of Directors, the Director and key positions of management should re-assess the current board policy and potentially add encompassing compensating controls. The Board should then periodically check that all procedures agreed upon are operational and effective, and adjust procedures as needed. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: The District agrees with the finding. See separate document for planned corrective actions.

FINDING 2022-002 SIGNIFICANT DEFICENCY and MATERIAL NONCOMPLIANCE Equipment/Real Property Management Condition: Equipment and property purchased were not subject to inventory management as required by federal guidelines. (2 CFR sections 200.313(c) through (e)) Criteria: Recommended Procedures Cause: During the course of the audit, we determined there lacked an internal control system and inventory management for items not related to technology. Effect: The HVAC repairs were not subject to applicable inventory control, log maintenance, and disposition requirements. Recommendations: The Board of Directors, the Director and key positions of management should adequately document internal control procedures for equipment inventory, log maintenance, and dispositions requirements consistent with 2 CFR sections 200.313(c) through (e). Board should then periodically check that all procedures agreed upon are operational and effective, and adjust procedures as needed. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: The District agrees with the finding. See separate document for planned corrective actions.
