“The officers of building for the future, inc. Follow the conflict of interest and disclosure policy of the nonprofit finance fund, the parent organization. The policy is applicable to all directors, officers, committee members and employees. At the beginning of each year, all directors, officers, committee members and key employees (if any) are required to sign a statement that affirms that the individual has received a copy of the conflict of interest and disclosure policy, that they have read and understood the policy, and that they agree to comply with the policy. All potential conflicts are reportable to the board of directors or relevant committee to determine if a conflict of interest exists. The interested person may not participate or be present in meetings when the potential conflict of interest is discussed or determined. Authorization of a transaction is approved by the board or board committee without the presence of the interested person. The board or board committee will review available information regarding the cost/benefit of comparable transactions or arrangements, and may also appoint a disinterested person or committee to investigate alternatives. The minutes of any meeting regarding the transaction and potential conflict of interest will reflect that the interested person has recused themselves from the meeting and abstained from voting. The minutes will also include details about the transaction, data gathered surrounding the transaction, the date the transaction was approved, board members present during the deliberations and the results of the voting.
