Dr. Henry M. Laing Volunteer Fireman’s Relief Association – Luzerne County – Audit Period January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2024

A compliance audit was conducted on the Dr. Henry M. Laing Volunteer Fireman’s Relief Association (in Luzerne County, PA) for January 1, 2022, to December 31, 2024. The audit aimed to assess corrective actions taken after a previous audit and verify compliance with state laws, bylaws, and procedures concerning state aid and fund expenditure. Although the relief association adequately addressed prior audit findings and largely complied with legal and procedural guidelines, the audit reported an unauthorized expenditure of $44,425 for vehicle maintenance, which is not sanctioned under the VFRA Act. Consequently, reimbursement of this amount is necessary to ensure future state funding approval. This is an automated summary. Please rely on the contents included in the released audit report.
