Lake Carmel Fire Department Inc

“The organization is comprised of volunteer members who comprise the fire protection force. The governing entity is comprised of a board of directors who maintain the on-going activities of the organization.”

“When an opening on the board occurs, the remaining board members seek qualified candidates for replacement. Resumes are received and reviewed to determine if the individual has the right character and experience to be on the board. Once this is done, qualified candidates are interviewed. Upon conclusion of interviews, the board votes on the candidates and the candidate receiving the majority of the votes is elected as a board member.”

“The decisions subject to the approval of members include, but are not limited to the following: payment of bills, acquiring new fixed assets, incurring debt, hiring professional service firms, establishing and implementing internal control procedures.”

“No review was or will be conducted.”

“The board reviews the conflicts of interest policy on an on-going basis to ensure that there are no transactions involving the fire company and members of the organization.”

“If a member of the public requests a copy of the governing documents of the organization, an appointment is made whereby the company invites the interested party to arrive at the company headquarters on a certain day and time and the documents are given to the individual upon their arrival.”
