Governance Explanations

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 11B

“The executive director first reviews the 990 and then it is distributed to the governing body for approval before filing.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 12C

“The lbp annually sends a questionaire to each member of the governing body, which includes the name, title, date and signature of each person's reporting information. It also contains pertinent instructions and definitions for line 1b to determine whether the member is or is not in compliance. All documents are maintained by the board treasurer in the corporate office.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 15A

“The lbp board reviews and approves the compensation for their executive director. They use comparable data of the compensation received by other similarly qualified persons in functionally comparable postions at similarly situated organizations. They also keep contemporaneous documentation and recordkeeping with respect to deliberations regarding the compensation arrangements.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 15B

“This is handled in the same manner as the compensation process for top official.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 19

“No documents available to the public”

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR FIRST REVIEWS THE 990 AND THEN IT IS DISTRIBUTED TO THE GOVERNING BODY FOR APPROVAL BEFORE FILING.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2THE LBP ANNUALLY SENDS A QUESTIONAIRE TO EACH MEMBER OF THE GOVERNING BODY, WHICH INCLUDES THE NAME, TITLE, DATE AND SIGNATURE OF EACH PERSON'S REPORTING INFORMATION. IT ALSO CONTAINS PERTINENT INSTRUCTIONS AND DEFINITIONS FOR LINE 1B TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE MEMBER IS OR IS NOT IN COMPLIANCE. ALL DOCUMENTS ARE MAINTAINED BY THE BOARD TREASURER IN THE CORPORATE OFFICE.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt3THE LBP BOARD REVIEWS AND APPROVES THE COMPENSATION FOR THEIR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR. THEY USE COMPARABLE DATA OF THE COMPENSATION RECEIVED BY OTHER SIMILARLY QUALIFIED PERSONS IN FUNCTIONALLY COMPARABLE POSTIONS AT SIMILARLY SITUATED ORGANIZATIONS. THEY ALSO KEEP CONTEMPORANEOUS DOCUMENTATION AND RECORDKEEPING WITH RESPECT TO DELIBERATIONS REGARDING THE COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS.
