About This Audit

The compliance audit of the Lawrence Township Volunteer Firemen’s Relief Association (LTVFRA) in Clearfield County, Pennsylvania, covered the period from January 1, 2023, to December 31, 2025. The audit aimed to determine if the LTVFRA took corrective actions from the previous audit and complied with relevant laws and procedures regarding state aid and fund expenditures. Conducted under specific state statutes, the audit identified that LTVFRA complied significantly with applicable regulations, though there were exceptions. Three findings were noted: the failure to provide a Pennsylvania Sales Tax Exemption Certificate to vendors, brokerage and checking accounts registered under an inactive federal tax ID, and an incomplete membership roster. Despite these issues, the LTVFRA adequately addressed a previous finding concerning surety bond coverage. The cooperation of LTVFRA officials during the audit process was acknowledged, highlighting effective collaboration. This is an automated summary.
