Activities Allowed or Unallowed / Cost Allowability
SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCYQUESTIONED COSTS

Per audit procedures performed over expenditures charged to the Emergency Rental Assistance Program (the Program), we noted an invoice that was incorrectly calculated and charged to the program. The service charge was calculated on a combined federal and state program total, which resulted in the City?s Program being overcharged. The overcharge included costs that should have been allocated to the State funding programs as opposed to the federal program, resulting in questioned costs to the Program. Cause: Although the City has sufficient internal control processes over expenditures, including proper review, approval and recording; the overcharge was due to the vendor providing one invoice which combined charges for both federal and state funded programs that was overlooked when the invoice was submitted for payment to the federal program. Effect: The City is out-of-compliance with the allowable costs/cost principles requirement of the Program in that the federal program was overcharged for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. Questioned Costs: $68,738 Recommendations: We recommend that management require vendors to split charges and/or implement additional reviews when processing payments for invoices with multiple funding sources.

SECTION III ? FEDERAL AWARD FINDINGS Reference: 2021-001 Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency Category of Finding: Allowable Costs/Cost Principles Federal Program Title(s) & CFDA Number(s): 21.023 ? Emergency Rental Assistance Program ? American Rescue Plan Act Federal Agency: United States Department of the Treasury Passed-Through: State of California - Department of Finance Award Number: N/A Award Year: Fiscal Year 2020/21 Criteria: Per Uniform Guidance Section 200.303, it is the City?s responsibility to establish and maintain effective internal controls over Federal awards that provide reasonable assurance that the City is managing the Federal award in compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and terms and conditions of the Federal award. The requirement ensures that only allowable costs are charged to federal programs. Condition: Per audit procedures performed over expenditures charged to the Emergency Rental Assistance Program (the Program), we noted an invoice that was incorrectly calculated and charged to the program. The service charge was calculated on a combined federal and state program total, which resulted in the City?s Program being overcharged. The overcharge included costs that should have been allocated to the State funding programs as opposed to the federal program, resulting in questioned costs to the Program. Cause: Although the City has sufficient internal control processes over expenditures, including proper review, approval and recording; the overcharge was due to the vendor providing one invoice which combined charges for both federal and state funded programs that was overlooked when the invoice was submitted for payment to the federal program. Effect: The City is out-of-compliance with the allowable costs/cost principles requirement of the Program in that the federal program was overcharged for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. Questioned Costs: $68,738 Recommendations: We recommend that management require vendors to split charges and/or implement additional reviews when processing payments for invoices with multiple funding sources.

Corrective Action Plan

Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: City staff will work with all vendors and sub-recipients to ensure that separate invoices are submitted to process payments for invoices with multiple funding sources. The vendors who hold multiple contracts with different funding sources we will require written confirmation that all invoices are associated with the correct funding source. Additionally, all invoices will be reviewed by three entities before processing, program manager, fiscal review, and Community Development Manager approval.
