“The board retains the services of an independent cpa firm to prepare the organization's form 990. Management reviews the completed form 990 and provides a full copy to all members of the governing body prior to filing.”
“Officers, directors, trustees, and key employees are annualy required to complete a conflict of interest disclosure statement as a precursor to their service to the organization. Potential conflicts are logged with and monitored by the secretary of the board.”
“The executive committee meets and decides on the president's salary without the president present. The salary is compared to other president's/executive director's for reasonableness. The decision is documented in writing. The executive's recommendation is affirmed by the board.”
“Governing documents and financial statements are available through applicable governmental agencies; the conflict of interest policy is available upon written request to the organization.”
“The garfield park conservatory alliance inspires, educates and provokes exploration through innovative programs and experiences in one of the nation's largest and finest plant conservatories. The conservatory changes lives through the power of nature. The alliance provides educational programming, visitor services and community engagement services to the garfield park conservatory and local community.”
“The long-term objective for the funds adopted by garfield park conservatory alliance is to generate additional cash flow to help suport the alliance's general operations.”
“Accounting principles generally accepted in the united states of america require management to evaluate tax positions taken by the alliance and recognize a tax liability if the alliance has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the irs or other applicable taxing authorities. Management has analyzed the tax positions taken by the alliance and has concluded that as of june 30, 2017 and 2016, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability or disclosure in the financial statements. The alliance is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. Management believes it is no longer subject to examinations for years prior to 2014.”
