Community Transportation Association of America

“Ctaa is a membership organization with over 1,100 members. Membership categories include general and associate members. Only general members are eligible to vote.”

“Members of ctaa elect ten of the members of the board of directors from ten geographical regions. The remaining members of the board of directors are elected by the ten regional board members.”

“The senior accountant of ctaa reviews the draft form 990 and confirms that all numbers tie to the audit and financial report. The cfo's review of the form 990 is broader in scope. The cfo will review the draft form 990's program accomplishment information for how it impacts the 501(c)(3) status of ctaa. Upon approval of the cfo, a general review is given to the executive director and any questions will be answered. Before the form is signed, a draft copy of the form is sent to the entire board of directors. If there are any questions or concerns, the cfo will address them. When all the questions and concerns have been addressed, the federal form 990 is electronically filed with the internal revenue service.”

“Members of the board of directors are provided with a copy of the conflict of interest policy annually, which must be signed and returned for review to both the president and the executive director. Members of the board of directors must also report potential conflicts of interest promptly and in writing to both the president and the executive director. The president and executive director will jointly suggest a resolution to the situation that is in the best interest of ctaa. Should a potential conflict of interest arise, that person would be recused from voting on that particular matter.”

“The executive director's annual compensation is determined by a review of a five-member executive committee. The executive committee includes members of ctaa's board of directors. The executive director must review his or her accomplishments for the year in relation to the goals that were established by the committee at the start of the year. The new executive director started on 4/1/16 and therefore a review has not been performed. The executive director will review the annual performances of the associate and assistant directors for ctaa and cdtls. The criteria for their compensation are based on the accomplishment of goals that were established in the prior year and setting new goals for the upcoming year.”

“Ctaa's governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements are available upon request.”
