The Chicago Sun-Times reported the department's inspector general issued a report Monday concluding the YMCA didn't maintain adequate financial reports to meet the program's standards.

YMCA sites in Vernon Hills, Waukegan to close Oct. 31

As a result of the findings, the inspector general's office recommends a little over $975,000 be returned to the federal government.

According to the report, Lake County Family YMCA CEO Lynda Chott didn't disagree with the findings but doesn't want to forfeit the money

Finance director Jim Malecha wouldn't say how the YMCA would be affected if it's forced to return the funds. The YMCA says the money was used for 2009-10 Early Head Start operations.
