About This Audit
The compliance audit of the Shrewsbury Firemen’s Relief Association for January 1, 2022, to December 31, 2024, evaluated adherence to the Volunteer Firefighters’ Relief Association Act and other state regulations concerning the receipt and expenditure of state aid. The audit aimed to verify corrective actions on previous findings and assess compliance with legal and administrative standards. Although the association addressed two out of three previous findings, it still failed to provide the Pennsylvania Sales Tax Exemption Certificate to vendors, resulting in unnecessary tax payments. Additionally, the audit could not verify that checks were authorized by two officers due to the absence of canceled check images, as required. Despite these issues, the audit concluded that the association complied with state laws in significant areas related to state aid and fund expenditures. This is an automated summary.
