Background & Context
3 stories
3.1
The federal grant cost-allowability question to ask first.
Before incurring any cost on a federal grant, the question is whether 2 CFR 200 (Uniform Guidance) treats the cost as allowable, allocable, and reasonable. "Reasonable" is the most-litigated of the three; auditors will second-guess it after the fact using a prudent-person standard.
Why It Matters
Disallowed costs must be repaid, with interest, and in serious cases trigger pass-through audits of other grants. The standard does not distinguish between intent and oversight.
3.2
Records-retention schedules: the silent compliance trap.
Most agencies have records-retention schedules that prescribe minimum and maximum hold periods for each record series. Discarding too early (below minimum) violates state records law; holding too long (above maximum) creates discovery exposure and storage cost. Both errors are routine.
Why It Matters
Records litigation typically lands between the minimum and maximum boundaries — the gray zone where the schedule could go either way. A consistently followed schedule is the best defense against claims of selective retention.
3.3
Open-meeting notice defects that void the action taken.
Most state open-meeting laws require posted notice with sufficient specificity for the public to know what is being decided. Generic "discussion of personnel matters" or "old business" descriptions routinely fail challenge, voiding any vote taken on items not specifically noticed.
Why It Matters
A voided action requires a re-vote at a properly noticed meeting — including any contract execution that depended on it. Counterparties to voided contracts have leverage they did not have before the defect surfaced.
