“Trustees are composed of 5 persons that are designated pursuant to procedures set forth in the croton teachers' association by-laws. Successor trustees are appointed by the procedures set forth in the croton teachers' association by-laws.”

“Trustees are appointed by the croton teachers' association. Trustees may also be removed from office pursuant to the bylaws of the association. The trust agreement may be amended from time to time by a majority vote of the trustees with the consent of the executive board of the croton teachers' association. The declaration of trust may be terminated by an instrument in writing executed by the trustees and done at the direction of the croton teachers' association.”

“When the form 990 has been prepared, reviewed by management, and is ready to be filed with the internal revenue service, a copy of the form 990 is provided to all board members for review and comment prior to submission. All questions and comments are addressed until the return is finalized and approved for filing.”

“The organization makes its form 990 available for public inspection as required under section 6104 of the internal revenue code. The return is posted on guidestar.org and similar websites. In addition, the financial statements, form 990 and bylaws are also available upon written request at the organization's address.”

“The organization's third party administrator, 90 degree benefits, id # 06-0892635, files forms 1096 and 1099 on behalf of the organization. Therefore, croton teachers association welfare trust fund did not individually file forms 1096 and 1099. 90 degree benefits filed form 1099 for approximately 94 providers (and two officers) on the organization's behalf.”
