“Each Board member and key members of management signs the Organization's conflict of interest policy once a year. In addition, a standard agenda item for all board and committee meetings is to ask if anyone has any conflicts of interest with the agenda. An interested person may make a factual presentation at the Board or Committee meeting, but after such presentation, he or she shall leave the meeting during the discussion of, and the vote on, the transaction or arrangement that results in the conflict of interest. An interested person shall not actively participate in the discussion of, or vote on, the transaction or arrangement that results in the conflict of interest, either formally at a board or committee meeting or informally through contact with individual Board or committee members. In addition, the interested person should not be counted in determining whether a quorum is present for the Board or Committee meeting at which the transaction or arrangement that results in the conflict of interest is to be voted upon.”

“The compensation for the ceo is determined by the executive committee of the board of directors. The executive committee conducts a performance review, then using a salary survey of the twin cities for similar sized non-profits and/or other factors decides upon the compensation level for the next budget year. All other employees are compensated using similar information to establish ranges for each position, then, the executive committee decides upon a cost of living increase for all employees (except for the ceo) and approves it with final budget approval.”
