Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11

The president and the cfo review a copy of the 990 after it is completed. A copy of the 990 is then made available at the next finance committee meeting for review and is open for discussion. The finance committee will then suggest approval at the next board meeting. During that board meeting, it is open for discussion and approved by the board of trustees.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12C

The board of trustees, committee members and staff make regular decisions regarding disbursement or assignment of resources from the foundation for business loans, contracts, community and economic development grants and for the ongoing operation of the foundation, and shall represent the entire region fairly. It is imperative that decisions affecting the foundation are not tainted by real or perceived conflicts of interest. Members of the board or committees will not participate in discussing or voting upon any proposal or business agreement in which they have a direct or indirect personal or financial interest. In addition, as soon as a potential conflict of interests becomes apparent, the member must inform the board or committee of the potential conflict of interest. Staff will not promote proposals or initiate business agreements for the foundation that would financially benefit them or members of their family without informing the president. If the potential conflict of interest affects the president, the board shall be notified. Options for resolution if a conflict of interest is determined to exist, options to be employed, at the discretion of the chair and/or president would include, but not be limited to: 1. The board member, committee member or staff member would not be permitted input on the decision. 2. The member in question may respond to specific inquiries regarding the decision, but not participate in making the decision. 3. The member in question shall leave the room while the item is under discussion. Conflict of interest disclosure form board, committee and staff members will also be expected to complete a conflict of interest disclosure form at the end of each fiscal year or upon appointment.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

The chair of the board uses data from compensation surveys to determine compensation levels, and then meets with the president to discuss. After the meeting a recommendation is brought to the board of trustees and a decision is made by the board. The surveys used are ones that are done by similar non-profits in the state to bring recommendations to the board of trustees for all employee wages. The board of trustees approve an annual budget that may include an increase for the entire staff. In cases where an employee's responsibilities have increase to recommend a corresponding salary adjustment, the president has the authority from the board to make such appropriate adjustments, in line with the board approved annual budget. This data comes from compensation surveys that are done by similar non-profits in the state to bring recommendations to the board of trustees for all employee wages.

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 18
