About This Audit
The compliance audit of the Firemen’s Relief Association No. 1 of Turtle Creek, Pennsylvania, addressed two main objectives: whether the association had taken corrective action on prior findings and whether it complied with relevant laws, contracts, and procedures related to state aid. Conducted from January 1, 2022, to December 31, 2024, the audit concluded that the association had not addressed previous recommendations, particularly regarding obtaining a Pennsylvania Sales Tax Exemption Number. The audit could not verify the cash balance due to a lack of independent confirmation. Consequently, the association was found noncompliant in managing state aid and funds, risking future state aid withholding. Despite these findings, the audit team acknowledged the cooperation of the relief association officials during the process. This is an automated summary.
