“We changed our bylaws to revise the voting approval requirements from a unanimous vote to a majority written consent in lieu of a meeting.”

“The form 990 is distributed to the entire board of directors for review. After the board unanimously accepts the form 990, it is filed with the internal revenue service.”

“Board and staff members read the leadership york code of conduct their first year of service, then annually thereafter. They fill out and sign a form annually, indicating they have read the code of conduct and disclosed of any potential conflicts of interest they may have. This form is reviewed by the board president and kept at the leadership york office.”

“A written review of the executive director is performed annually. The board president receives written input from board members, compiles the input, then meets with the executive director to share results. Annual performance goals are developed by the executive director in consultation with the executive committee. Data on other nonprofit executive director rates is obtained from guidestar - we look at small york county nonprofits and track them in an excel spreadsheet - the executive committee reviews this along with performance evaluation to determine annual compensation for the executive director.”
