“On an annual basis in the month of september, a form is distributed to all members of the governing body and key employees in which they are asked to disclose any interests that could give rise to conflicts.

“Salaries of the executive director and other key employees of the organization are set and approved by the executive committee. Data relating to the measurement of comparable salaries for employees with similar functions and duties throughout the united states is obtained periodically from an independent accounting firm. The executive committee reviews the current inflation rates, cost of living increases, salary increases being granted to public and private employees in the local region, as well as qualifications and performance of said employees. The executive committee uses this data to arrive at the salaries of the organization's executive director and other key employees.”
