“The board chair, vice chair, secretary, treasurer, and chairs of committees serve as the trustees of the executive committee. The immediate past board chair shall serve a one-year term on the executive committee. The executive committee has all the powers and authority of the board in the intervals between meetings of the board of trustees except for the power to elect, dismiss or terminate a trustee and the power to amend the articles of incorporation and bylaws, and is subject to the direction and control of the full board.”

“The form 990 draft will be reviewed and discussed at a wallin finance committee meeting, and provided to the full board of trustees to review and approval to file at their next board meeting.”

“The written conflict of interest document is distributed annually to all board members at the june board meeting. The form is updated, signed, and submitted to the organization each year by all trustees. If an actual or potential conflict arises, the covered person must disclose the existence of the potential conflict along with all material facts to the board or a board designated committee to consider the transaction. Once the disclosure has occurred, the covered person will leave the board meeting for deliberation. The board will then decide how to proceed with the potential conflict. Minutes of the meeting will be taken.”

“Each year in approximately june, the board chair leads the full board in a formal performance evaluation process for the president and ceo and uses a formula to determine salary increase consistent with the written compensation philosophy and process. The salary increase is merit based on organizational, as well as individual performance compared to annual goals and market data. A comprehensive compensation study is conducted biannually to develop a salary scale in line with the market for all positions in the organization. Adjustments to compensation for other key employees were approved by the president and made in line with the scale. Additionally, a third party consultant reviewed current executive compensation data to inform and help to determine the president's salary adjustment. The board's deliberation and decisions are included in the board minutes. The process described here was last completed in 2025.”
