Snake Creek Volunteer Firemen’s Relief Association – Susquehanna County – Audit Period January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2024

The compliance audit of the Snake Creek Volunteer Firemen’s Relief Association for January 1, 2022, to December 31, 2024, aimed to check corrective actions from prior findings and compliance with state laws for state aid receipt and fund expenditure. The audit revealed that while four prior findings were addressed, four others remained unresolved, including failures in maintaining complete equipment and membership rosters, conducting physical inventories, and securing a sales tax exemption. Additionally, unauthorized expenditures were noted. The relief association’s inability to fully meet compliance requirements may lead to withholding future state aid. The findings were shared with the association’s management for their action and response. Despite audit efforts, cash balance verification was not possible due to lack of independent bank confirmation. The need for timely implementation of recommendations is stressed, and continued non-compliance with audit recommendations could impact the relief association’s future operations and aid eligibility.
