“The form 990 is reviewed and discussed by the finance committee and board members prior to filing.”
“The organization requires board members to submit a conflict of interest statement on an annual basis. Board members have a duty to disclose and if it is determined that a conflict of interest exists, the board will hear all material facts and then discuss with the board member with a conflict absent to determine what action if any should be taken.”
“The executive committee reviews staff, executive director and finance director salaries and makes recommendations to the board of directors for approval. Their review consist of a review of past year's salary, a review of comparable salaries in the region and the lta salary study is utilized to provide national and regional context for salaries.”
“The organization makes its governing documents and financial statements available upon request. The conflict of interest policy is available on the organization's website.”
“A conservation easement is a legal agreement between a landowner and a qualified conservation organization (i.e. The conservancy) that permanently limits a property's use in order to protect its conservation values. Conservation easements, either purchased or donated, are initially valued at their appraised value. The difference between the purchase price and appraised value is reflected as a gift of land or development rights in the statement of activities. Once the development rights for a specific conservation easement are extinguished, generally immediately after acquisition, a valuation allowance is established to reduce the value of the conservation easement to $1. This value reflects the lack of marketability related to the easements. The reduction in value due to extinguishment of development rights is reflected as a program expense in the statement of activities and conservation easement valuation expense on the statement of functional expenses.”
“No provision for federal and state income taxes has been made since the conservancy is exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code. The conservancy files information returns in the u.s. Federal jurisdiction and these returns are generally no longer subject to examination by tax authorities for years before 2021. The conservancy has not had any business income unrelated to its exempt purpose and, therefore, has not filed income tax returns in any jurisdiction.”
“The conservancy's endowment fund is used to account for endowment contributions. This fund was established to support the activities of the conservancy in perpetuity.”
