Pursuit's Take
CSB is not following federal or agency internal control guidance or required federal regulations. CSB did not:
- Prepare quorum session summaries on time (written summaries of briefings or informal discussions with three or fewer board members).
- Post four of nine public meeting transcripts in a timely fashion on the CSB website.
- Create internal guidance over its annual operating budget process.
- Have documentation supporting its decisions to award contracts (written agreements enforceable by law) for legal services after making micro- purchases (purchases with a government credit card), and to lease public building space.
The lack of internal guidance and implementation of controls puts CSB’s $11 million budget at risk.
