Bushkill Volunteer Firefighter’s Relief Association – Pike County – Audit Period January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2024

The compliance audit of the Bushkill Volunteer Firefighter’s Relief Association, conducted from January 1, 2022, to December 31, 2024, aimed to assess the implementation of corrective actions from a prior audit and ensure compliance with relevant state laws and administrative procedures. The audit found that the relief association successfully addressed two out of three previous findings, namely unauthorized expenditure and inadequate meeting minutes. However, it failed to maintain a complete equipment roster and conduct annual inventories, a shortcoming also noted in past audits. Overall, the association largely complied with state requirements regarding state aid and fund expenditure, except for the persistent issue with inventory management. The report emphasizes the importance of adequate internal controls and urges the association to rectify the identified deficiencies. The audit was conducted not in line with Government Auditing Standards but was thorough to meet its objectives. This is an automated summary.
