The Captain noted was appointed under a previous chief and were therefore, already in this position at the time of the related Chief Officers election. |
| Form 990 Part VI | 5 | In FY ending June 30, 2012 the Barboursville Vol Fire Dept became aware of discrepancies in the Departments accounts. An investigation revealed the administrative secretary had embezzled funds from the Department by writing checks to herself via the bookkeeping software and recording them as payments to various vendors as well as personal use ot the Departments credit card. The employee was terminated and the matter was referred to the police October 6, 2011. Thorough documentation of the fraudulent activity was provided to the police as well the County Prosecutor and after their review she was formally charged and was indicted in June 2012 by a grand jury. She ultimately pled guilty to all charges and will be sentenced on May 14, 2013. After indictment, the departments insurance company reimbursed the Department for 91,374. This was recorded on the FY 2012 balance sheet as Insurance Recovery Receivable noted as Other Assets on Form 990 because as of year-end the Department was certain the insurance company would be paying the claim. The check was received for the full amount on July 19, 2012. After the indictment and guilty plea, an additional 9,545 was discovered and has been recorded as an extraordinary loss due to fraud. Since discovery of the fraud and hiring of a new administrative secretary the following measures have been taken to prevent this from occurring in the future 1 Proper segregation of duties has been enforced. The administrative secretary is responsible for preparing bills for payment via Quickbooks software but does not have access to the physical checks for printing and is not permitted to reconcile the checking accounts. 2 Unused check stock is now in a secure locked area to which only limited designated individuals have access. A check log was implemented which documents the beginning and ending check serial numbers on hand for |
| Form 990 Part VI | 5 | each account. The secretary records on the log the numberof checks needed from each account to pay bills with her signature and the date. The person accessing the check supply signs ad dates the log and documents the check serial numbers provided. The log is periodically audited to ensure all checks are accounted for. 3 Checks require two signatures. The previous administrative secretary had access to a signature stamp and would use it and forge the second signature by hand. Signature stamps are no longer available for use. Each individual signing the checks verifies the payee and amount to an attached invoice before signing and the number written is compared to the request per the log. 4 Bank statements are reconciled by an independent bookkeeper. All cleared checks are compared to the register to ensure the actual payee matches the register. Skips in check serial numbers are verified to ensure it is either outstanding or has been properly voided and retained for documentation. The reconcilements are signed and dated by the bookkeeper. Discrepancies noted are to be reported to the Chief and or the Board of Directors. 5 The departments records and 2011 Form 990 were reviewed by an independent CPA and will continue to be going forward. 6 Account balances and budget vs. actual reports are reviewed by the Board and presented to the membership monthly. This provides additional monitoring and oversight of the funds coming in and expenditures going out. |
