“The audit committee reviews a draft of Form 990, after any changes are made, the full board is provided with a copy for board review before the 990 is filed.”
“At every board meeting, the board will determine if any agenda item requiring board action poses an actual or potential conflict of interest with a covered person as determined by the board. The board shall act as follows:1 Approve such transaction, contract or project only after making specific findings that a more advantageous arrangement that would not give rise to a conflict is not reasonably possible, that the transaction is fair and benefits LCWM, the board has complete knowledge of the benefit to the conflicted member, and the conflicted member did not participate in the voting process.2 All such discussions and approval shall be recorded in the board meeting minutes.”
“Compensation for the executive director is determined by research done by the governance committee of the board of directors (without the Executive Director) into the compensation rates in both the local area and the industry for similarly situated individuals. After consultation with the finance committee, the compensation rate is recommended for approval by the full board of directors. All discussions and deliberations are documented.”
“The governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements are made available to the public upon request.”
“The Land Conservancy has a written policy that states how the organization will monitor, inspect and handle violations and enforcement of conservation easements. The policy establishes the procedure the organization will follow in the event of a potential easement violation and the appropriate enforcement action. The policy prescribes actions staff will take in assessing and documenting a potential violation, and steps that will be taken by staff and board to resolve any violation, including possible legal action. The Land Conservancy uses the Michigan model conservation easement as the basis for its conservation easements.”
“The Conservancy assigns a value of $1 to donated and purchased easements and includes them in net assets with donor restrictions to be held in perpetuity.”
