Lewis Run Volunteer Fire Department Relief Association – McKean County – Audit Period January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2024

A compliance audit of the Lewis Run Volunteer Fire Department Relief Association (LRVFDRA) for January 1, 2023, to December 31, 2024, assessed corrective actions and adherence to laws related to state aid and fund expenditures. The audit found that LRVFDRA addressed only one of two previous findings, particularly failing in proper signatory authority for fund disbursements. Despite mostly complying with state laws and bylaws, an issue persists with signatures from unauthorized individuals, contravening VFRA Act requirements for at least two officer signatures on disbursed checks. The relief association has been advised to strengthen internal controls and update authorized signatories. This is an automated summary.
