“The executive committee is made up of the board chair, vice chair, treasurer, secretary, and immediate past chair (if still serving on the board). All executive committee members are members of the board. The board has the authority to act on behalf of the body between full board meetings, with any decisions made being ratified by the full board at the next scheduled meeting.”

“The finance committee reviewed the completed form 990 and made a recommendation to the full board of directors regarding the acceptance and filing of the form 990. The full board of directors was provided a copy of the form 990, in addition to the minnesota attorney general's annual report prior to filing.”

“Board members provide disclosure of any conflicts of interest at each meeting. These statements are reviewed by the board president and executive director. Any actual conflicts are shared with the full board orally and in writing. If there are questions about whether a conflict exists, the full board votes. If a conflict exists, the involved board member does not vote on the matter. Additionally, if a direct financial conflict exists, the involved board member does not participate in the discussion. All proceedings related to conflicts of interest are documented in the meeting minutes or as otherwise appropriate.”

“The executive director's salary is set by the board of directors each year, and at the hiring of a new executive director. To reach its decision, the executive committee reviews peer salary information from the minnesota council of nonprofit's salary survey (published every two years) and makes a recommendation to the full board of directors. The board of directors discusses and accepts or amends the committee's recommendation. The salary amount is transmitted in writing (email) to the executive director. In 2024, key employees used the minnesota council of nonprofit's salary survey to review compensation levels and determined rates for all employees for 2025. The final proposal for compensation was included as part of the 2025 annual budget approved by the board of directors. The process described here was last completed in 2024.”

“Community engagement: move minnesota engages communities who have been historically left out of transportation planning - including youth, women, people with low incomes, communities of color, people with disabilities, and other minnesotans who depend on transportation options every day. Across all backgrounds, walking, bicycling, and using transit are incredible ways for us to connect with each other, be present in our community, and expand our relationships.”

“Education at move minnesota, we love inspiring more people to ride transit, bike, walk, car-share, and ride-share. We know that sharing knowledge and providing opportunities for people to experience transportation options firsthand is key to changing hearts, minds, and habits. Our educational programming connects residents, employers, employees, schools, and more with sustainable options for getting around.”
