“The fiscal officer prepares the form 990 and it is reviewed by the director and the fiscal officer informs the board of directors when the Form 990 has been filed and that a copy of the Form 990 is available in her office if they want to review it.”

“If a potential conflict of interest arises it is addressed at the regular monthly board meeting of the board of directors.”

“A committee of three board members is formed each year to evaluate the director and the fiscal officer on an annual basis. Increases are based on their performance and the economic condition of the library.”

“All governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements are available in the director's and fiscal officer's office for public review. The public many also attend the public segment of the monthly regular board meetings for information or to express concern. These monthly meetings are posted on the library's website.”

“The money from Tecumseh Local Schools was a pass-through for our local property tax levy. Our type of library in Ohio does not have taxing authority, so the library partnered with the school district to borrow the school district's taxing authority, and so our payments come through them.
