“The draft of form 990 is reviewed by the executive director and the finance committee then submitted to the full board before it is filed with the irs.”

“The conflict of interest policy applies to any director, principal officer or member of a committee with governing board delegated powers. In connection with any actual or possible conflict of interest, an interested person must disclose the existence of the financial interest and be given the opportunity to disclose all material facts to the directors and members of committees with governing board delegated powers considering the proposed transaction or arrangement. After disclosure, the interested person shall leave the meeting while the determination of a conflict of interest exists, then the interested person shall leave the meeting during the discussion and the board will vote on the transaction or arrangement involving the conflict of interest. If the governing board or committee has reasonable cause to believe a member has failed to disclose actual or possible conflicts of interest, it shall inform the member of the basis for such belief and afford the member an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose. If, after hearing the member's response and making further investigation as warranted by the circumstances, the governing board or committee determines the member has failed to disclose an actual or possible conflict of interest, it shall take appropriate disciplinary and corrective action.”
