Pennsylvania Commission on Sentencing warns of depleted reserves, accepts audit and outlines $4.1M budget request
Summary
The commission accepted an independent fiscal audit, detailed operating reserves and spending constraints, and reported a $4.1 million budget request after explaining its current funding shortfall and staffing reductions.
The Pennsylvania Commission on Sentencing accepted its independent fiscal audit and described sharply constrained operating reserves as staff urged legislative support for a $4.1 million budget request.
Chairman Fox opened the commission’s fiscal report and the board voted to accept the contract audit prepared by Boyer & Ritter. Executive Director Dr. Matthew Kleinman then walked members through the agency’s operating budget, recent savings actions and a formal budget request submitted in February.
The audit: The commission contracted Boyer & Ritter under a three-year agreement; the independent review for fiscal year 2023–24 found no material deficiencies in internal control and no reportable instances of noncompliance. The commission put the audit to a vote and the audit was accepted without recorded objection.
