We audited the monitoring practices that the San Francisco Office of Public Housing (SF OPH) used to monitor American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 supplemental capital formula and competitive grants awarded to public housing agencies in Region IX. The audit was conducted in accordance with a mandate to review the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) monitoring of Recovery Act funds to determine whether there were safeguards to ensure that grantees used funds for their intended purposes. Our objective was to determine whether SF OPH (1) used HUD’s risk assessment process to select Recovery Act grantees for monitoring, (2) monitored grantees’ administration of the grant for compliance with Recovery Act requirements, and (3) monitored grantees to ensure timely obligation and expenditure of Recovery Act funding. We determined SF OPH in Region IX complied with HUD policies for monitoring Recovery Act grantees selected through the risk assessment process. It also monitored grantees’ administration of the grant for compliance with Recovery Act requirements and provided increased transparency and adequate monitoring of Recovery Act expenditures.
