Governance Explanations

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

“This 990 was prepared by a tax accountant in MA. After the President/CEO, Laurie Gardner, reviewed the completed Form(s) and related schedules with the tax accountant, all governing board members were provided a complete copy to review before the filing of the tax return(s).”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12C

“Each year at the SYL annual board meeting, each board director reviews our conflict of interest policy and discloses any conflict they might have. All are required to reread our COI policy and to sign and date their annual disclosure form.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15B

“To determine the compensation for the President/CEO (SYL's only employee to date), the independent directors (NOT including the President/CEO) reviewed extensive comparability data. They reviewed, discussed, voted on, and documented the CEO compensation contemporaneously at a board meeting and in the minutes of that meeting, which included all relevant attachments.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19

“SYL's governing documents, conflict of interest policy, financial statements, forms 1023/24, and 990 are available for public inspection upon request.”

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0This 990 was prepared by a tax accountant in MA. After the President/CEO, Laurie Gardner, reviewed the completed Form(s) and related schedules with the tax accountant, all governing board members were provided a complete copy to review before the filing of the tax return(s).
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1Each year at the SYL annual board meeting, each board director reviews our conflict of interest policy and discloses any conflict they might have. All are required to reread our COI policy and to sign and date their annual disclosure form.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2To determine the compensation for the President/CEO (SYL's only employee to date), the independent directors (NOT including the President/CEO) reviewed extensive comparability data. They reviewed, discussed, voted on, and documented the CEO compensation contemporaneously at a board meeting and in the minutes of that meeting, which included all relevant attachments.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt3SYL's governing documents, conflict of interest policy, financial statements, forms 1023/24, and 990 are available for public inspection upon request.
