Williamsport finance staff says $99,896.36 in HUD funds will be repaid after monitoring findings
Summary
Finance staff told the Williamsport Finance Committee that a resolution would authorize repayment of $99,896.36 in HUD funds identified in recent HUD monitoring; the amount was budgeted in the 2025 finance department budget.
What you have here in front of you is a resolution authorizing the repayment of HUD funds related to monitoring findings that happened at our two most recent monitoring by HUD, Jornea, finance department staff, told the City of Williamsport Finance Committee.
The repayment totals $99,896.36, Jornea said, and the city previously budgeted $100,000 for the payment during 2025 budget sessions. The funds in question were drawn from HUD programs, including the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), and were identified through HUD monitoring or an audit, Jornea said.
The issue was described as already accounted for in the 2025 budget. Councilman Randy said the matter was “pretty cut and dried,” noting the city had budgeted for the repayment. He added that the repayment would be placed on the public record for listeners.
No formal vote or final action on the resolution was recorded in the committee transcript. The discussion in the meeting established the repayment amount and the budget source; the transcript does not record a mover, second, or vote on the resolution.
Background: City staff told the committee the questioned charges were identified during HUD monitoring; the transcript does not specify the precise HUD monitor report or the individual transactions that triggered the finding.
The meeting moved on after the committee recorded the repayment discussion; no public speakers were recorded on this item in the transcript.
