Supplemental Narrative
Additional Explanations
Pt VI, Line 2
“Jonathan has invested $40,000 of personal retirement savings into the worker-owned cooperative composting business Michael co-founded, Rust Belt Riders. Rust Belt Riders is a client of Cleveland Owns; Cleveland Owns Cleveland Co-op Fund worked with Rust Belt Riders to secure Rust Belt Riders loan from the national CDFI Seed Commons in 2022. Jonathan and Michael informed Seed Commons of Jonathans financial interest in RBR before Seed Commons evaluated and approved the loan. Since supporting worker co-ops is squarely in our mission, the Cleveland Owns board had no problems with Cleveland Owns working with Rust Belt Riders. Jonathan and Michael also informed Seed Commons of Jonathans financial interest in RBR before beginning to work with them.”
Pt VI, Line 11B
“The Board has given the authority for the Treasurer and Executive Director to review and sign off on the Form 990.”
Pt VI, Line 12C
“How do we monitor our written conflict of interest policy? Cleveland Owns has a written conflict of interest policy which requires disclosures of financial interests and an assessment of conflict of interest. If a conflict is identified, conflicted parties are required to abstain from making decisions related to that interest. We monitor this by documenting conflicts of interest. How do we enforce compliance with conflict of interest policy? We enforce compliance by reviewing the policy as a group, and by investigating potential conflicts together. How do we want governance documents available to public Yes, folks are welcome to stop by our office and view governance documents, as well as financial statements.”

| IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt | 0 | Jonathan has invested $40,000 of personal retirement savings into the worker-owned cooperative composting business Michael co-founded, Rust Belt Riders. Rust Belt Riders is a client of Cleveland Owns; Cleveland Owns Cleveland Co-op Fund worked with Rust Belt Riders to secure Rust Belt Riders loan from the national CDFI Seed Commons in 2022. Jonathan and Michael informed Seed Commons of Jonathans financial interest in RBR before Seed Commons evaluated and approved the loan. Since supporting worker co-ops is squarely in our mission, the Cleveland Owns board had no problems with Cleveland Owns working with Rust Belt Riders. Jonathan and Michael also informed Seed Commons of Jonathans financial interest in RBR before beginning to work with them. |
| IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt | 1 | The Board has given the authority for the Treasurer and Executive Director to review and sign off on the Form 990. |
| IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt | 2 | How do we monitor our written conflict of interest policy? Cleveland Owns has a written conflict of interest policy which requires disclosures of financial interests and an assessment of conflict of interest. If a conflict is identified, conflicted parties are required to abstain from making decisions related to that interest. We monitor this by documenting conflicts of interest. How do we enforce compliance with conflict of interest policy? We enforce compliance by reviewing the policy as a group, and by investigating potential conflicts together. How do we want governance documents available to public Yes, folks are welcome to stop by our office and view governance documents, as well as financial statements. |
