Ramsey County could owe $273K after mishandling a federal grant
A federal audit found Ramsey County failed to meet requirements for a nearly $3 million Justice Department grant intended to upgrade first responder radios and generators. The county lacked required policies and did not use a competitive process for generators, leading to $273,000 in questioned costs. The Justice Department’s grant office will determine if repayment is required, and auditors recommended improving grant administration and financial management.
