Lancaster Township Fire Department Relief Association – Lancaster County – Audit Period January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2024

The compliance audit of the Lancaster Township Fire Department Relief Association, conducted for the period January 1, 2022, to December 31, 2024, assessed the organization’s adherence to state laws and proper fund management. While the association corrected four out of six previous audit findings, it failed to address unauthorized expenditures and inadequate equipment inventory management, as highlighted in prior recommendations. This indicates ongoing issues in governance despite compliance in some areas. The audit, not needing to adhere to U.S. Government Auditing Standards, concluded that apart from noted exceptions, the association largely complied with state regulations concerning state aid and fund expenditure. Overall, while acknowledging positive steps taken, the auditors recommended continued improvements to rectify persisting issues. This is an automated summary.
