“Officers and directors are required to complete a "conflict of interest" document which is reviewed by the officers and executive committee for compliance on an annual basis. It is deemed a conflict of interest if an officer, director, or staff member has a personal or official relationship or is a blood relative or in a domestic partnership with a vendor, competing organizations, providers of grants, or part of an organization that affects the operations of the organization. Such conflicts are not permitted unless waived by the executive committee after full disclosure, exclusion of the conflicted person from said discussions, competitive bidding (where appropriate) and the determination that a transaction is in the organization's best interests. There have been no instances of noncompliance. If a conflict exists, the committee will attempt to resolve the issue by necessary actions. If the conflict cannot be resolved, the matter will be brought to the attention of the board of resolution.”
