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

The cspm conflict of interest policy covers any director, principal officer, or member of a committee with governing board delegated powers.

IRS990ScheduleI/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0THE CSPM HAS A MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING (MOU) WITH THE CITY. THE CSPM ASSISTS THE MUSEUM DIRECTOR IN PRODUCING A BUDGET THAT IS DESIGNED TO ALIGN WITH THE STRATEGIC VISION OF THE CSPM. THE CSPM IDENTIFIES ITS ANNUAL CONTRIBUTION TO THE PROPOSED BUDGET. AS OWNER OF THE MUSEUM BUILDING, GROUNDS, AND COLLECTION, THE CITY IS PRIMARILY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SUPPORT OF MUSEUM OPERATIONS. THE BUDGET IS SUBMITTED TO THE CITY FOR REVIEW AND DETERMINATION OF THE LEVEL OF SUPPORT TO BE PROVIDED FOR THE MUSEUM FROM CITY FUNDS. THE CITY USES GOOD FAITH EFFORTS TO SECURE FUNDING FOR THE MUSEUM IN THE ANNUAL BUDGET PROCESS. THE CITY AND CSPM WORK TOGETHER TO DETERMINE THE TIMING AND METHODOLOGY FOR TRANSFERRING REIMBURSEMENT FUNDS FROM THE CSPM TO THE CITY. AS THE OWNER, THE CITY IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE MUSEUM'S PHYSICAL PLANT INCLUDING MAINTENANCE, UTILITIES, AND INSURANCE. IN ADDITION, THE CITY PROVIDES SUPPORT SERVICES SUCH AS INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND SECURITY SERVICES. SUCH MAINTENANCE AND SUPPORT IS PROVIDED THROUGH THE BUDGETARY PROCESS, CITY DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES, OR VENDORS, AS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY THE CITY. THE CITY AND CSPM WORK TOGETHER ON ANY EXCEPTIONAL NEEDS OUTSIDE THE BUDGET, SUCH AS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS, RESTORATION, SPECIAL PROJECT GRANTS, APPLICATION FOR LODGERS AND RENTAL TAX ("LART") FUNDING, OR OTHER SUPPORT FUNDING SOURCES AS MAY BE REQUIRED. CSPM HAS A CLOSE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE PIONEERS MUSEUM FOUNDATION OF COLORADO SPRINGS ('FOUNDATION'). ALTHOUGH BOTH BOARDS ARE INDEPENDENT OF EACH OTHER, THEY COMMUNICATE AND COLLABORATE REGULARLY ON THE ANNUAL BUDGET AS BOTH ORGANIZATIONS HAVE AN EXEMPT PURPOSE OF SUPPORTING THE OPERATIONS OF THE MUSEUM. IN 2024, CSPM SUPPORTED THE MUSEUM IN THE FOLLOWING WAYS: - ARCHIVES SUPPORT, $250 - CAPITAL PROJECT SUPPORT, $1,009,820 - EXHIBIT DEVELOPMENT SUPPORT, $153,520 - GENERAL OPERATING SUPPORT, $289,935 - TOTAL: $1,453,525
