About This Audit

A compliance audit of the Refton Community Fire Company Relief Association, covering January 1, 2021, to December 31, 2024, was conducted to assess the correction of prior audit findings and adherence to relevant laws concerning state aid use. The audit found the relief association adequately complied with state regulations about the receipt and expenditure of funds, although several issues persisted. Specifically, it identified unauthorized expenditures totaling $1,281, an inadequate financial record-keeping system, failure to segregate officers’ duties, and failure to maintain equipment inventory. The relief association had not taken sufficient corrective action on findings from previous audits. Recommendations were provided for improvement, and the association’s management discussed these findings. It’s essential for the relief association to address identified issues promptly to ensure proper financial conduct and compliance in the future. This is an automated summary.
