Governance Explanations

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

“The final draft of the form 990 is distributed and reviewed by the board of directors. After approval by the board of directors, the final form 990 is filed with the internal revenue service.”

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

“Annually, each director shall sign a statement which confirms that he or she has received and understands the conflict of interest policy and has agreed to comply with the policy. The statement shall also confirm that the board member understands the nature of the non-profit status of the company and that compliance with this policy protects that status.”

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

“The annual compensation of the top management official is reviewed and approved by the board of directors, who uses market comparisons for comparable positions to identify reasonable compensation and benefit levels. This process was completed in december 2013 for the general manager. The organization does not compensate any other directors or officers and no other employees meet the irs' definition of a key employee.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19

“When a request is received for public inspection of the governing documents and/or the financial statements, the board of directors will evaluate the facts and circumstances specific to the individual request to determine if the request will be granted.”
