The Grassflat Volunteer Firemen’s Relief Association – Clearfield County – Audit Period January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2024

The compliance audit of The Grassflat Volunteer Firemen’s Relief Association for January 1, 2023, to December 31, 2024, aimed to verify adherence to state laws, contracts, bylaws, and administrative procedures regarding state aid and fund expenditure. Conducted by the Pennsylvania Auditor General’s office under state constitutional and statutory authority, the audit found that the association largely complied with regulations, except for an unauthorized expenditure. The relief association mistakenly paid $1,951 for the affiliated fire company’s commercial insurance policy, contrary to the Volunteer Firefighters’ Relief Association Act, which mandates proper use of funds. The report recommends reimbursement of $1,951 to the relief association to rectify the unauthorized expense. Failure to do so may adversely impact future state aid allocations.
