About This Audit

The compliance audit of the Rivers Edge Volunteer Fire Department Relief Association in Allegheny County, covering January 1, 2022, to December 31, 2025, aimed to ensure compliance with state laws, contracts, and procedures pertaining to the receipt of state aid and the expenditure of funds. Conducted under the authority of Pennsylvania statutes, the audit noted a name change from Braddock Volunteer Fire Department No. 2 Relief Association in June 2023. Although unable to independently verify the cash balance as of December 31, 2025, due to lack of direct confirmation from the bank, the audit found general compliance with requisite regulations, aside from this verification issue. The relief association’s total expenditures over this period were $81,473, with a key focus on ensuring appropriate spending of public tax monies. The report emphasizes the responsibility of relief association officers to maintain effective internal controls and comply with relevant legal frameworks. This is an automated summary.
