Governance Explanations

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 11B

The return is presented to the board for comment and review before filing the return.

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 12C

In any situation where there is potential for an actual or apparent conflict of interest, a board member has a duty to immediately disclose the situation to the board. This includes, but is not limited to, all instances where a board member or a member of his or her immediate family holds a real property interest or financial interest in a property that is a legal abutter to the subject of a proposed eclt action. The board may determine on a case-by-case basis whether an actual or apparent conflict of interest precludes the board member from participation in the action. If a simple majority of the disinterested board members present at any meeting where a quorum is present determines that an actual or apparent conflict should preclude an individual from participation in an action, the conflicted board member must abstain from discussion and voting on the issue, other than to provide objective information. In making such determination, the disinterested members of the board must exercise their normal fiduciary duty of care to the eclt. Eclt disclosure to other parties: in addition to internal eclt disclosure, the eclt must be aware that public credibility is instrumental for the organization's longevity. Thus, in all cases where a conflict of interest has been formally discussed in a board meeting, the eclt has a duty to disclose the fact and outcome of such discussion to all parties to the transaction. Eclt disclosure to board of directors: the eclt board of directors has a duty to disclose other board or committee appointments to the eclt board and executive director for purposes of capitalizing on involvement in other community-based organizations and to ensure there is no conflict of interest. If the board determines that a board member has violated this policy, the board may remove the board member from the eclt board, in accordance with the provisions of the eclt bylaws section 3.5(a) or 3.5(b).

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 15A

The board meets and reviews the executive director's performance and the salsary is determined annually after those meetings.

Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Page 2, Part III, Line 2

The new easement on the sullivan's island proeprty was a new program service accomplishment this year.

Form 990, Page 2, Part III, Line 4D

The land trust started receiving rent for thornhill farms which is owned by the sister organization, eclt foundation. The east cooper land trust operates this farm.

Financial Statement Notes

Schedule D, Page 1, Part II, Line 5

There is a land committee that meets regularly and monitors every property annually as described in the by-laws.

Schedule D, Page 1, Part II, Line 9

Since the land trust does not own the properties that it issues conservation easements on, it does not report them on the balance sheet. They are footnoted to the financials when the annual review is done. Any money received is reported on the profit and loss.

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0THE NEW EASEMENT ON THE SULLIVAN'S ISLAND PROEPRTY WAS A NEW PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENT THIS YEAR.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1THE LAND TRUST STARTED RECEIVING RENT FOR THORNHILL FARMS WHICH IS OWNED BY THE SISTER ORGANIZATION, ECLT FOUNDATION. THE EAST COOPER LAND TRUST OPERATES THIS FARM.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2THE RETURN IS PRESENTED TO THE BOARD FOR COMMENT AND REVIEW BEFORE FILING THE RETURN.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt3IN ANY SITUATION WHERE THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR AN ACTUAL OR APPARENT CONFLICT OF INTEREST, A BOARD MEMBER HAS A DUTY TO IMMEDIATELY DISCLOSE THE SITUATION TO THE BOARD. THIS INCLUDES, BUT IS NOT LIMITED TO, ALL INSTANCES WHERE A BOARD MEMBER OR A MEMBER OF HIS OR HER IMMEDIATE FAMILY HOLDS A REAL PROPERTY INTEREST OR FINANCIAL INTEREST IN A PROPERTY THAT IS A LEGAL ABUTTER TO THE SUBJECT OF A PROPOSED ECLT ACTION. THE BOARD MAY DETERMINE ON A CASE-BY-CASE BASIS WHETHER AN ACTUAL OR APPARENT CONFLICT OF INTEREST PRECLUDES THE BOARD MEMBER FROM PARTICIPATION IN THE ACTION. IF A SIMPLE MAJORITY OF THE DISINTERESTED BOARD MEMBERS PRESENT AT ANY MEETING WHERE A QUORUM IS PRESENT DETERMINES THAT AN ACTUAL OR APPARENT CONFLICT SHOULD PRECLUDE AN INDIVIDUAL FROM PARTICIPATION IN AN ACTION, THE CONFLICTED BOARD MEMBER MUST ABSTAIN FROM DISCUSSION AND VOTING ON THE ISSUE, OTHER THAN TO PROVIDE OBJECTIVE INFORMATION. IN MAKING SUCH DETERMINATION, THE DISINTERESTED MEMBERS OF THE BOARD MUST EXERCISE THEIR NORMAL FIDUCIARY DUTY OF CARE TO THE ECLT. ECLT DISCLOSURE TO OTHER PARTIES: IN ADDITION TO INTERNAL ECLT DISCLOSURE, THE ECLT MUST BE AWARE THAT PUBLIC CREDIBILITY IS INSTRUMENTAL FOR THE ORGANIZATION'S LONGEVITY. THUS, IN ALL CASES WHERE A CONFLICT OF INTEREST HAS BEEN FORMALLY DISCUSSED IN A BOARD MEETING, THE ECLT HAS A DUTY TO DISCLOSE THE FACT AND OUTCOME OF SUCH DISCUSSION TO ALL PARTIES TO THE TRANSACTION. ECLT DISCLOSURE TO BOARD OF DIRECTORS: THE ECLT BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS A DUTY TO DISCLOSE OTHER BOARD OR COMMITTEE APPOINTMENTS TO THE ECLT BOARD AND EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR FOR PURPOSES OF CAPITALIZING ON INVOLVEMENT IN OTHER COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS AND TO ENSURE THERE IS NO CONFLICT OF INTEREST. IF THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT A BOARD MEMBER HAS VIOLATED THIS POLICY, THE BOARD MAY REMOVE THE BOARD MEMBER FROM THE ECLT BOARD, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE ECLT BYLAWS SECTION 3.5(A) OR 3.5(B).
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt4THE BOARD MEETS AND REVIEWS THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR'S PERFORMANCE AND THE SALSARY IS DETERMINED ANNUALLY AFTER THOSE MEETINGS.
