Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B

“The organization's executive director and accountant work closely with the form 990 preparer in answering all questions on the form as well as providing accurate financial and other infomation for inclusion. A draft of the form is then reviewed by the executive director and accountant prior to finalization. Any changes they determine are required are incorporated into the form prior to issue.

No covered person who has an interest in a matter that may involve a conflict of interest shall vote on or otherwise take part in any decision of neighborspace regarding that matter. Whenever a covered person discloses an actual or potential conflict of interest or abstains from voting on a transcation by reason of having a personal interest in the transaction or interest in the organization affected by the transaction, that disclosure and abstention will be recorded in the minutes of the meeting at which the transaction was considered and vote occured.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“Accounting standards provide guidance for how certain tax positions should be recognized, measured, disclosed and presented in the financial statements. This requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the organization's information returns to determine whether the tax position are "more-likely-than-not" of being sustained "when challenged or "when examined" by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit and asset or expense and liability in the current year. The orgnization files information returns in the u.s. Federal jurisdiction and illinois state jurisdiction. The organization is no longer subject to u.s. Federal and state examinations by tax authorities for years before 2017. As of and for the year ended december 31, 2020, management has determined that there are no uncertain tax positions.”

IRS990/Desc0NEIGHBORSPACE CONTINUES TO ASSIST DOZENS OF BLOCK CLUBS, CHURCH GROUPS AND NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS WHO HAVE SET OUT TO RECLAIM THE UNUSED LOTS IN THEIR COMMUNITIES ACCROSS CHICAGO. OUT OF FIELDS OF WEEDS THEY CREATE ROWS OF VEGETABLES. OUT OF PLACES USED FOR DUMPING GARBAGE THEY CREATE PLACES TO RECONNECT WITH NATURE. UNFORTUNATELY, MANY OF THESE URBAN OASES DISAPPEAR QUICKLY OR ARE LOST FOREVER DUE TO REDEVELOPMENT OR LACK OF RESOURCES. THIS IS WHERE NEIGHBORSPACE COMES IN. AS CHICAGO'S NONPROFIT LAND TRUST FOR COMMUNITY GARDENS THEY ARE HERE TO ENSURE THAT THESE COMMUNITY-DRIVEN EFFORTS ARE NOT FLEETING; THAT THE COMMUNITY'S HARD WORK AND VISION LIVES ON, ESPECIALLY IN THOSE AREAS WITH THE LEAST AMOUNT OF OPEN SPACE. SINCE 1996 NEIGHBORSPACE HAS BEEN ABLE TO PRESERVE OVER 120 NEIGHBORHOOD GARDENS, EACH ONE A UNIQUE EXPRESSION OF THE COMMUNITY THAT CREATED IT. IN 2020 NEIGHBORSPACE WILL CONTINUE TO GROW. THEY ARE WORKING TO PROTECT VISIONARY COMMUNITY GARDEN ACROSS THE CITY, IN SOUTH SHORE, AUSTIN, AVONDALE, LITTLE VILLAGE AND BEYOND.
