CONTENTS: Single Audit Report for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2009
Recommendation
By Minute Motion, that the City Council receive and file the single audit
report of Federally Assisted Grant Programs for fiscal year ended June 30,
2009.
Committee Recommendation
The Audit, Investment and Finance Committee received the single audit report at their
March 23, 2010 meeting, and it was recommended that the report for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 2009 be received and filed by the City Council.
Background
The Single Audit Act and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-133, Audits
of States, Local Governments, and Non -Profit Organizations, requires non-federal
entities that expend equal to or in excess of $500,000 in a fiscal year in federal awards to
have an audit performed in accordance with the Single Audit Act.
The City was required to undergo an audit of federal funds it received because the City
expended more than $500,000 in the year ended June 30, 2009. On Page 5 of the Single
Audit of Federally Assisted Grant Programs, a detail of federal expenditures is given. The
City's Community Development Block Grant represents the majority of expenditures
totaling $410,076. In total, the City expended $518,912 for the year ended June 30, 2009.
The City did not expend more than $500,000 in the previous year ended June 30, 2008.
Therefore, it was not required to undergo a single audit.
Diehl, Evans & Company, LLP, was hired to perform and complete an audit on the
Schedule of Federal Financial Assistance for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. As
