About This Audit
The compliance audit of the Forward Township Non-Uniformed Pension Plan, covering January 1, 2021, to December 31, 2024, was conducted to assess adherence to state laws and regulations. Undertaken under the Municipal Pension Plan Funding Standard and Recovery Act, the audit focused on municipal officials’ corrective actions concerning prior findings and compliance with administrative and legal requirements. It found the plan was largely compliant except for failing to enroll an eligible employee hired in 2024. Recommendations were made to ensure all qualified employees are enrolled, addressing this shortcoming. Township officials were cooperative, and future audits will assess compliance further.
