Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Pt VI, Line 6

“The Organization has members.”

Pt VI, Line 7A

“Members elect the board of directors at the annual meeting.”

Pt VI, Line 11B

“The board of directors review the form 990 as prepared by an outside accounting firm. At a board meeting, the year-end financial reports are discussed with the board of directors in detail and on conclusion, a copy of the audited financial statements is distributed to each board member.”

Pt VI, Line 12C

“The members of the board of directors review and sign the conflict of interest statements on an annual basis.”

Pt VI, Line 15A

“The executive committee of the board of directors determines and approves the salary for the executive director. The executive committee reviews available published information on executive director compensation for similar sized organizations. Board members serve as volunteers and are not compensated.”

Pt VI, Line 19

“All governing documents, conflict of interest policies and financial statements are availble upon request at the offices of the Foundation.”

Financial Statement Notes

Pt II, Line 9

“Fee simple properties which are purchased by the Foundation are recorded as an asset on the Statement of Financial Position at the cost at the time of acquisition. Donated land is recorded at fair value at the time of donation as an asset on the Statement of Financial Position and a contribution on the Statement of Activities.”

Pt V, Line 4

“The Fund will make annual distributions (without regard to income or principal classifications) to the Foundation in an amount not to exceed five percent (5%) of the average fair market value of the Fund assets determined on the last business day of the preceding three (3) calendar years, the exact amount to be determined annually by the board of directors (the Annual Distribution Amount). The Annual Distribution Amount shall be made in equal quarterly installments at the end of each calendar quarter and will be allocated to and utilized by the Foundation only for the purposes intended. In addition to the Annual Distribution Amount, up to twenty-five percent (25%) of the fair market value of the Fund may be used in any calendar year for capital expenditures, and up to seventy-five percent (75%) of the fair market value of the Fund may be used in any calendar year to meet an emergency need for funds upon the affirmative vote of at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the entire board of directors. No further use of the Fund principal for capital expenditures or to meet emergency needs (other than is necessary to distribute the Annual Distribution Amount) shall be permitted until the amount withdrawn has been replaced through other gifts to the Fund, through board approved transfers of operating surplus or through investment growth of the Fund.”

Pt II, Line 5

“The Organization has a written policy regarding periodic monitoring, inspection, handling of violations and enforcement of easements.”
