“A Member may be any Public Library located in Allegheny County which would qualify for state aid if it were independent. Each Member Library enters into the Member Library agreement, pays all assessments set forth in the Member Library agreement Articles, Bylaws and any additional rules and regulations adopted by the Members or by the Board of Directors in accordance with the Bylaws.”
“Members of five geographic library service regions within Allegheny County shall select a member of the Board of Directors for their region. One member will be elected by the Librarian Advisory Council, one by the Allegheny Regional Asset District and two directors will be appointed at large by recommendation by the Board and voted on by the members.”
“The powers of the Association are held by the Governing Board. The members retain the power to approve the general overall budget and the long range plan.”
“The audit and form 990 are prepared in draft for review by the Executive Director, Treasurer, and Audit Committee prior to submission to the Board of Directors.”
“All Board Members complete a disclosure statement to fully and completely disclose the material facts about any actual or potential conflicts of interest. The disclosure statement is completed in accordance with ACLA's policies and procedures and is updated annually thereafter.”
“The Board conducts an annual performance review process that considers the executive director's performance against established goals. This information is used to make compensation adjustments within the parameters of the pay scale that has been established. That pay scale has been adopted based on an external consultant's review of comparable agencies across the nonprofit sector and recommendations for specific application to ACLA positions.”
“All are available on site by request.”
“The Board of Directors has designated $100,000 of net assets without donor restrictions to protect monthly member distributions in the event of a shortfall of funding from the Allegheny Regional Asset District to cover general opererating expenses for several months and to protect net assets with donor restrictions.The Board of Directors has also designated a vehicle replacement fund to cover future vehicle purchases as needed. The increase in the balance each year approximates the annual depreciation.”
