About This Audit
The compliance audit of the Volunteer Fireman’s Relief Association of East Cocalico Township, conducted for the period from January 1, 2022, to December 31, 2024, aimed to verify if the association took corrective actions from prior audit findings and complied with relevant state laws and procedures regarding state aid and fund expenditure. The audit concluded that the association addressed past findings and generally complied with laws, though a finding of inadequate bylaws was noted. The bylaws failed to specify that the disbursing officer must sign financial instruments, violating Section 7415(c) of the VFRA Act. The association’s management agreed to address this issue. The audit covered financial practices but did not adhere to Government Auditing Standards. Total state aid allocations were listed for 2022-2024, with total expenditures of $199,730. Compliance with recommendations will be verified in the next audit. The report appreciated the cooperation of relief association officials. This is an automated summary.
