Governance Explanations
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 2
“Michael mantell, mary scoonover, and shauna manner (former officer) are officers of rlf and have a business relationship - michael and mary are owners of resources law group (rlg) and shauna was employed by rlg.”
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 4
“Resources legacy fund in march of 2016 amended its bylaws to create three classes of directors, with staggered four year terms, and to allow the board to waive the requirement of a one year absence following three consecutive terms before serving another term.”
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B
“The 990 is prepared by outside tax accountants, reviewed by the director of finance, director of operations and the president of resources legacy fund foundation, and the audit committee. It is then sent to all voting members before filing.”
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12C
“A conflict of interest policy covers officers and directors, who are required to disclose potential conflicts annually in writing. The board of directors determines if an actual conflict exists and is responsible for any required review and action. Additionally, a conflict of interest policy is included in the employee policy manual. Upon hire, employees are required to read it and acknowledge that they are familiar with and will observe the policy.”
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15
“The governance committee, on behalf of the board, engaged an outside consultant to review the executive compensation of rlf's peers, to assess rlf's executive compensation, and to provide an independent opinion regarding the reasonableness of rlf's executive compensation. The positions of president and executive vice president were included in this assessment. This process was last undertaken in 2015. Every two to three years, the president reviews comparative data of salaries and benefits from surveys of foundations, similar nonprofit organizations in the west, and/or law or environmental consulting firms, selected based on data availability and similarity of positions, for a comparative analysis of the california market and of similar positions to those at rlf. This data informs the development of and adjustments to salary ranges for each position. The president establishes a reasonable compensation level for the individual employees, taking into consideration the salary ranges, his awareness of compensation practices gained through his professional and volunteer affiliations, and other factors. This process was last undertaken in 2017.”
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19
“Audited statements and 990 tax returns are available and downloadable from www.resourceslegacyfund.org. Organizational by-laws and irs letter of determination of tax exemption are provided at request to all donors.”

THE FOUNDATION'S ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION, WHICH WERE SUBMITTED TO THE IRS AS PART OF RLFF'S EXEMPTION APPLICATION, PROPERLY SPECIFYING THE PUBLICLY SUPPORTED ORGANIZATION ON WHOSE BEHALF IT OPERATES. THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION PROVIDE THAT THE FOUNDATION IS FORMED "TO SUPPORT, PERFORM ESSENTIAL SERVICES FOR, AND AT ALL TIMES HEREAFTER TO OPERATE EXCLUSIVELY FOR THE BENEFIT OF RESOURCES LEGACY FUND AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 509(A)(1) OR SECTION 509(A)(2) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE THAT PROMOTE LAND CONSERVATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION IN CALIFORNIA," AMONG OTHER PURPOSES. SPECIFICATION BY CLASS, RATHER THAN BY NAME, IS APPROPRIATE BECAUSE THE FOUNDATION IS CONTROLLED BY RLF, A PUBLIC CHARITY. SEE TREAS. REG. SECTION 1.509(A)-4(D)(2). THE CLASS SPECIFIED CONTAINS ONLY ORGANIZATIONS WHOSE PURPOSES ARE SUBSUMED WITHIN RLF'S LAND CONSERVATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION PURPOSES AS SET FORTH IN THE ARTICLE II.B.
