SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY

The County’s SLFRF compliance report for the year ended December 31, 2024 included several clerical errors including incorrectly reporting there were $0 in current period expenditures rather than the $1,660,202 included on the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal awards as well as incorrectly listing the fiscal year end date as December 31, 2023. Cause: The errors appear to be due to insufficient oversight in preparing the annual compliance report due to staffing issues within the County. Effect: The inaccurate reporting resulted in noncompliance with federal and state reporting requirements. This may impact the transparency and accountability of SLFRF fund usage. Questioned Costs: None Recommendation: Morgan County should implement procedures to ensure accurate reporting of expenditures and correct fiscal year end dates in all future SLFRF compliance reports. The County should ensure that all future reports are reconciled to actual activity and comply with SLFRF and Uniform Guidance requirements. Views of Responsible Officials: Management concurs with the finding and will address the issue as outlined in the corrective action plan included in this report

Finding 2024-003: Inaccurate Reporting of SLFRF Expenditures and Fiscal Year End Federal Program: Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF) Assistance Listing Number (ALN): 21.027 Federal Agency: U.S. Department of the Treasury Type of Finding: Compliance and significant deficiency in internal control over compliance Criteria: Per Uniform Guidance (2 CFR 200.510(b) and 2 CFR 200.516), recipients must accurately report expenditures and obligations in required annual compliance reports. Reports must also reflect the correct fiscal year end date as required by federal and state reporting standards. Context: Morgan County is a recipient of SLFRF funding and is required to submit accurate annual compliance reports reflecting actual expenditures and the correct fiscal year end. For the reporting period ending March 31, 2025, the County elected the $10 million standard allowance for revenue loss and was required to report all SLFRF expenditures incurred during the year ended December 31, 2024. Condition: The County’s SLFRF compliance report for the year ended December 31, 2024 included several clerical errors including incorrectly reporting there were $0 in current period expenditures rather than the $1,660,202 included on the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal awards as well as incorrectly listing the fiscal year end date as December 31, 2023. Cause: The errors appear to be due to insufficient oversight in preparing the annual compliance report due to staffing issues within the County. Effect: The inaccurate reporting resulted in noncompliance with federal and state reporting requirements. This may impact the transparency and accountability of SLFRF fund usage. Questioned Costs: None Recommendation: Morgan County should implement procedures to ensure accurate reporting of expenditures and correct fiscal year end dates in all future SLFRF compliance reports. The County should ensure that all future reports are reconciled to actual activity and comply with SLFRF and Uniform Guidance requirements. Views of Responsible Officials: Management concurs with the finding and will address the issue as outlined in the corrective action plan included in this report
