The City of Santa Ana (the City) expended $49.5 million of <br />federal awards during Fiscal Year 2018-19 (from July 1, 2018 to June 30, 2019). The Single Audit <br />(Exhibit 1) has been completed by the City's independent auditor, White Nelson Diehl Evans LLP. <br />The Accounting Division is pleased to report that the City received an unmodified opinion (clean) <br />on the Single Audit Report and no compliance findings were noted. The clean opinion indicates <br />that the City complied, in all material respects, with the compliance requirements that could have a <br />direct and material effect on each of its major federal programs for the fiscal year ended June 30, <br />2019. The auditors selected Housing Voucher Cluster and Highway Planning and Construction as <br />major programs for the audit. <br />The Single Audit Report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 is posted and available on the <br />City's website (https://www.santa-ana.org/finance/comprehensive-annual-financial-reports-cafr- <br />and-other-financial-reports), along with Single Audit reports for prior fiscal years. In addition, the <br />report has been submitted for certification as part of the Single Audit Data Collection Form process. <br />STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT <br />Approval of this item allows the City to meet Goal #4 - City Financial Stability, Objective #1 (maintain <br />a Stable, Efficient, and Transparent Financial Environment). <br />19C-1 <br />
