Clifton Park Trustees

“The organization's membership is comprised of beneficiaries of a trust deed; the beneficiaries are owners of property in clifton park, a land allotment in lakewood, ohio, and include the clifton club.”

“The trustees, at all times five, is a self-perpetuated governing body. Successor trustees are elected by a majority vote of the remaining trustees. Each trustee has one vote.”

“Unanimous consent is required to sell, convey or make public any part of the land/park.”

“A copy of the 990 was provided to the five voting trustees for review prior to filing with the irs.”

“Each year, the trustees are asked to review the organization's conflict of interest policy. Among other things, the policy makes clear that all decisions of the trustees, officers, and employees of the organization are made solely on the basis of a desire to promote the best interest of the organization and it's membership. The conflict of interest statement requests trustees to identify to the best of their knowledge affiliations with organizations that may be potentially related to the financials or other substantive operations of the organization. They are also asked to identify circumstances involving either themselves, or a member of their extended family, that may be construed as a conflict of interest. At the administrative/property management, the organization's personnel also ensure that there are no conflicts of interest when considering the engagement of a new vendor. If a potential conflict is identified, appropriate steps are taken to both assess the nature of the potential conflict and, subsequently, to ensure that the possibility of an actual conflict is mitigated. Such mitigation is managed and the letter and spirit of the conflicts policy are upheld.”

“The organization's governing documents, form 1024, form 990 and form 990t are made available to the public upon request.”
