“The executive director and finance director review the form 990 prior to it being filed.”
“Annually, each board member fills out a questionnaire relating to disclosure of conflicts of interest. Any new board members receive information on what may constitute a conflict and what their responsibilities are as a board member. If any such conflicts are noted, that board member will be excused during that particular discussion/voting and it will be documented in the minutes.”
“Each year the organization does research on what the competitive salary ranges for this area,including la crosse, wi. The organization also call and ask our minnesota providers group "providers network" on the guideline that they are using that year and review form 990's of similiar agencies. The organization has a separate personnel committee of board members that presents their findings to the whole board on the compensation of the executive director.”
“The financial statements are not made available to the public unless requested. The conflict of interest policy is made available with employment applications. Governing documents are available upon request by the appropriate parties.”
“This process has not changed from the previous year”
“U.s. Gaap requires management to evaluate tax positions taken by the organization and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if the organization has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority. Management has analyzed the tax positions taken by the organization, and has concluded that as of december 31, 2017 and 2016, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements. The organization is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. The organization will recognize future accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense, if incurred.”
