Independent Auditor’s Report on Summary Financial Statements
Board of Directors
Sports & Exhibition Authority of Pittsburgh and Allegheny County
The accompanying summary financial statements, which comprise the summary statement of net position as of December 31, 2019, and the summary statement of revenues, expenses, and changes in net position for the year then ended, are derived from the audited financial statements of the Sports & Exhibition Authority of Pittsburgh and Allegheny County (Authority) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019. We expressed an unmodified audit opinion on those audited financial statements in our report dated April 9, 2020.
The summary financial statements do not contain all the disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Reading the summary financial statements, therefore, is not a substitute for reading the audited financial statements of the Authority.

Statements

Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion about whether the summary financial statements are consistent, in all material respects, with the audited financial statements based on our procedures, which were conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. The procedures consisted principally of comparing the summary financial statements with the related information in the audited financial statements from which the summary financial statements have been derived, and evaluating whether the summary financial statements are prepared in accordance with the basis described in Note 2.
Opinion
In our opinion, the summary financial statements of the Authority as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019 referred to above are consistent, in all material respects, with the audited financial statements from which they have been derived, on the basis described in Note 2.

CDBG CARES Act Funding and
2019 Action Plan Substantial Amendment
As an entitlement community, the City of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (“City”) receives funding from U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) through the Community Development Block Grant Program (CDBG), HOME (HOME) Investment Partnerships Program, Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS (HOPWA), and Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) Program. Through the March 27, 2020 passage of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), Public Law 116-136, the City has also received CDBG-CV, ESG-CV, and HOPWA-CV allocations. The City will receive $8,376,863 in Community Development Block Grant Coronavirus (CDBG-CV) funds, $4,193,562 in Emergency Solutions Grant Coronavirus (ESG-CV) funds, and $165,945 in Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS Coronavirus (HOPWA-CV) funds.To expedite the disbursement of the City’s 2019 CDBG and 2020 CDBG-CV funds, via 24 CFR 5.110, the CARES Act authorizes HUD to grant waivers to the public notice, public comment, and citizen participation plan requirements found in 24 CFR 91.105I(2) and (k), 24 CFR 91.115I(2) and (i) and 24 CFR 91.401. In accordance with the City of Pittsburgh’s Citizen Participation Plan and HUD’s regulatory requirement waivers (which reduce the minimum 30-day public comment period to a 5-day period), a virtual public hearing will be held at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday, May 6, 2020 to provide an opportunity for comment on proposed Substantial Amendments to its 2019 Annual Action Plan as well as the City’s Citizen Participation Plan. The public hearing virtual location will be posted at https://pittsburghpa.gov/omb/omb-public-notices. Please check our website at https://pittsburghpa.gov/omb/cd for more information. The funds allocated under the CARES Act may be used for a range of eligible activities that prevent and respond to the spread of infectious diseases such as the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The proposed activities must meet one of the three National Objectives as required by CDBG regulation:
•Benefit low-and moderate income persons
•Aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight, and
•Meet an urgent need
In addition, and for the purpose of an expedited use of the CDBG-CV funding, the bill eliminates the cap on the amount of funds a grantee can spend on public services, removes the requirement to hold in-person public hearings in order to comply with national and local social gather requirements, and allows grantees to be reimbursed for COVID-19 response activities regardless of the date the costs were incurred. The bill also allows grantees to apply the waiver of statutory regulations to 2019 and 2020 allocations.
The Amended 2019 Annual Action Plan describes how these funds will be spent locally. Community development programs recommended for funding in the Amended 2019 Annual Action Plan include the following:
CDBG-CV:
Emergency Small Business Support $ 5,000,000.00
