About This Audit

The compliance audit of the Franklin Township Firemen’s Relief Association, covering January 1, 2023, to December 31, 2024, aimed to verify adherence to state laws, contracts, bylaws, and procedures regarding state aid receipt and fund expenditure. Conducted per the Volunteer Firefighters’ Relief Association Act, it assessed the association’s financial administration. Audit findings confirmed compliance in most areas, except for the failure to update bylaws to align with the VFRA Act, identified as a prior issue. The association must update its bylaws to ensure operational compliance. Management agreed with the findings and plans corrective action, which will be verified in the next audit.
