Nysarc Inc Ontario County Chapter

“Nysarc, inc. Is a unitary corporation consisting of its 39 chapters. Nysarc, inc. Ontario county chapter is one division of the corporation. The corporation and chapter's governing body is the board of governors representing the individual membership in each chapter's jurisdiction. Each chapter has one primary and one alternative governor with a weighted vote based on membership. The corporation through its bylaws delegates day-to-day operating authority to the chapters board of directors. The executive committee of the board of governors (see part vi, line 7a below) comprises the corporation's elected officers and exercises all powers of the board of governors between plenary meetings of the governors.”

“The organization's members elect the officers and directors of the chapter annually. In turn, those chapter board members nominate the officers and directors of the corporation.”

“The board of governors does not review chapters' form 990s before they are filed. Each chapter submits a copy of its form 990 to the board of governors when the form 990 is filed by the chapter. Each chapter must have a process for its board of directors to review the chapter's form 990. The ontario county chapter's process is as follows: the organization provided a copy of the 990 to the audit committee, which reviewed a draft and approved the final changes, if any were made. Form 990 then distributed to board of directors prior to filing.”

“Conflict of interest statements are recorded and updated annually from all directors.”

“Generally, contract negotiations between ontario arc and the executive director will begin in early november. A contract period will be for up to three years. A multi-year contract, once approved by the board of directors, may include annual salary increases for the length of the contract. In the last year of a multi-year contract the executive director and board president will discuss the terms of a proposed renewal contract. The board president will discuss with the executive committee if any additional proposed revisions by either party are identified. If necessary, the executive committee may invite the executive director to meetings to discuss any proposed contract revisions. The board president, the executive committee and the executive director have access to the annual nysarc, inc. Executive compensation survey, the annual performance review, and should use these and other sources as necessary as part of the negotiation procedures. Contracts will be completed and brought before the board for final review and approval no later than the january board of directors meeting. The board president will sign the contract as the representative of ontario arc, and the executive director will sign.”

“All of these documents are located in a notebook labeled "public access to information, and the notebook is at the front desk/main reception area at the main facility.”

“All nysarc chapters are subject to chapter manual that delineates the policies and procedures of the board of governors.”
