Frenchcreek Township Non-Uniformed Pension Plan – Venango County – Reduced Period Engagement – Period Ended December 31, 2024

A compliance audit of the Frenchcreek Township Non-Uniformed Pension Plan was conducted under the Municipal Pension Plan Funding Standard and Recovery Act (Act 205), covering the period from January 1, 2023, to December 31, 2024. The objectives were to evaluate corrective action on prior findings and compliance with relevant laws and procedures. The audit determined that, generally, the pension plan was administered in accordance with regulations, except for an overpayment issue related to incorrect data on Certification Form AG 385. The key problem was the township certifying ineligible employees, which resulted in overstated payroll figures and overpayments of state aid across several years. Despite the finding, township officials were cooperative during the audit process. This is an automated summary. Please rely on the contents included in the released audit report.
