ATTACHMENT DI
GUIDELINES FOR FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT OF CDBG-FUNDED ACTMTIES
To comply with federal regulations, each program must have a financial management system that
provides accurate, current and complete disclosure of the financial status of the activity, This means the
financial system must be capable of generating regular financial status reports which indicate the dollar
amount allocated for each activity (including any budget revisions), amount obligated (i.e., for which
contract exists), and the amount expended for each activity, The system must permit the comparison of
actual expenditures and revenues against budgeted amounts. The City must be able to isolate and to trace
every CDBG dollar received and prove where it went and for what it was used,
Accounting records must be supported by source documentation, Invoices, bills of lading, purchase
vouchers, payrolls and the like must be secured and retained for four years in order to show for what
purpose funds were spent. Payments should not be made without invoices and vouchers physically in
hand. All vouchers/invoices should be on vendor's letterhead.
All employees paid in whole or in part from CDBG funds should prepare a time sheet indicating the hours
worked on CDBG projects for each pay period. Based on these time sheets and the hourly payroll costs
for each employee, a voucher statement indicating the distribution of payroll charges should be prepared
and placed in the appropriate files.
The City is responsible for reviewing and certifying the financial management of any operating agency,
which is not a City department or bureau, in order to determine whether or not it meets all of the above
requirements, If the agency's system does not meet these requirements and modifications are not
possible, the City must administer the CDBG funds for the operating agency.
Financial records are to be retained for a period of four years, with access guaranteed to the City, to HUD
or Treasury officials or their representative.
One copy of the vendors' audited financial statement shall be submitted to the City immediately following
the end ofthe vendors' fiscal year(s) during which CDBG funds are received,
Payments to sub-recipients will be on a reimbursement basis to be submitted to:
