Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B

“The form is circulated electronically via e-mail to all members of the governing body. They review the form and submit comments to the organization's president and treasurer who relay such comments to the paid preparer of the form 990. All comments (if any) are relayed by the treasurer/president/executive director and the paid preparer before the form 990 is filed and an updated version is prepared. The updated version is then approved by the treasurer, executive director, and president, forwarded to all of the organization's other directors via e-mail and electronically filed.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15A

“The executive director's compensation is approved annually by the board of directors. On an annual basis the executive director's professional performance is reviewed by the organization's board of directors and the executive director meets with the board president for an in-depth performance review. A signed letter documenting the board's decision to provide a pay increase is drafted by the board president and provided to the executive director.”
