About This Audit

A compliance audit was conducted on the Liquid Fuels Tax Fund of the Township of Mahoning, Carbon County, for the period January 1, 2024, to December 31, 2024, as per Pennsylvania Department of Transportation’s (PennDOT) guidelines. The audit aimed to assess the township’s adherence to regulations regarding the management of Liquid Fuels Tax Fund allocations, which are designated for local road maintenance. The auditing process included reviewing municipal records, comparing reported figures on Form MS-965, and testing expenditure transactions to ensure accuracy and compliance. While most of the township’s actions aligned with set criteria, a misstatement on Form MS-965 was identified and adjusted, and noncompliance with advertising and bidding requirements was noted. The audit concluded that, despite this finding, Mahoning Township largely complied with the relevant criteria. This is an automated summary.
