About This Audit
The audit of The Hershey Fireman’s Relief Association for the period of January 1, 2022, to December 31, 2024, reveals noncompliance with prior recommendations and state laws. The audit aimed to check corrective actions from the previous audit and adherence to regulations regarding state aid and expenditure of funds. Significant findings suggest the Association did not address prior issues effectively, including securing ownership interest in jointly purchased equipment, receiving proceeds from a sold jointly-owned vehicle, and maintaining accurate records. Weaknesses also included inadequate signatory authority and incomplete meeting minutes. Consequently, the association faces potential withholding of state aid. Recommendations urge timely corrective measures. This is an automated summary. Please rely on the contents included in the released audit report.
