Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 6

“The organization is organized as a non-profit corporation with members who elect the members of the board of directors.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 7A

“The organization's members are responsible for electing the members of the board of directors at the annual meeting.”

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

“Form 990 is generally available for review at a director's meeting prior to its filing. If time constraints preclude this, then form 990 is available for review at the next directors meeting after its filing.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12C

“Directors, officers and employees are required to disclose conflicts and potential conflicts on matters that come before the board or that otherwise relate to activities of the organization. The board determines after full disclosure whether a conflict exists, and if so the individual with the conflict is recused from action on the matter to which the conflict relates.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“The personell subcommittee of the board regularly reviews the executive directors compensation and makes comparisons with other land trusts in new england. The final decision is made by the full board. None of the corporate officers receive any compensation and there are no key employees as defined in the instructions to form 990.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“The organization does not have formal policy as to whether its governing documents, policies (including conflict of interest) and financial statements are available to the public, although such documents have on occasion been provided upon request.”

Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

FORM 990, PART XI, LINE 9:

“Recepit of conservation land 1,350,143. In kind rental income 16,000. In kind rent expense -16,000. Donation of conservation land -316,110.”

Financial Statement Notes

PART II, LINE 5:

“Upon accepting a conservation easement, the organization assumes a perpetual obligation to monitor, normally on an annual basis, the affected property to endure that the landowner complies with the restrictions in the easement. Further, the organization is obligated to enforce provisions of the easement violation to the terms of the easement. Enforcing the easements are the real property rights, they possess little or no market value due to a resale market that is essentially limited to the owner of the fee title of the restricted property. The organization capitalizes each conservation easement at $1 to facilitate tracking the number of easements acquired.”
