“The members must approve amendments to the organization's bylaws and articles of organization.”

“Each officer and director of the organization receives a draft copy of the form 990 and they review it together at a board meeting before it is filed.”

“All officers and directors receive a copy of the conflict of interest policy. They sign an annual statement declaring that they: received a copy of the policy; have read and understood the policy; agree to comply with the policy; and understood that the policy applies to all committees and sub-committees. If the board determines that a conflict of interest does exist, it may appoint a non-interested person or committee to investigate alternatives. After exercising due diligence, the board must determine, by a majority vote, whether the transaction or some alternative 1) is in the organization's best interests and for its own benefit; 2) is fair and reasonable to the organization; and 3) is the most advantageous transaction the organization can obtain under the circumstances. The interested person must not participate in the determination of whether or not the financial interest may result in a conflict of interest nor in the resolution of such a conflict. If it is determined that an officer or a director violated the policy, the board may take appropriate disciplinary action against the interested person ranging from formal reprimand to removal from the board.”

“The board of directors establishes the compensation for the executive director. The board of directors review salary information from comparable organizations contained in guidestar's most recently published salary survey. They also review salary data of partner organizations. They have established a compensation package for the executive director that was within the range of organizations similar in size and scope to community catalyst.”

“The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements available upon written request.”

“This process has not changed since the prior year.”

“Community catalyst receives a large amount of its funding from foundations who support its many programs. Accordingly, part i, line 19, which reports changes in both unrestricted and temporarily restricted net assets, can fluctuate significantly from year to year. Community catalyst's management assesses financial results based on changes in unrestricted net assets because it more accurately reflects operating results. During the years ended december 31, 2015 and 2014, changes in unrestricted net assets were $217,589 and $135,970, respectively.”
