“Disclosure should be timely made. Transactions with related parties may be undertaken only if all of the following are observed: 1. A material transaction is fully disclosed in the audited financial statements of the organization; 2. The related party is excluded from the discussion and approval of such transaction; 3. A competitive bid or comparable valuation exists; and 4. The organization's board has acted upon and demonstrated that the transaction is in the best interest of the organization. Staff disclosures should be made to the executive director (or if he or she is the one with the conflict, then to the board), who shall determine whether a conflict exists and is material, and if the matters are material. Disclosure involving directors should be made to the board officers. The remainder of the board without potential conflict shall determine whether a conflict exists and is material, and in the presence of an existing material conflict, whether the contemplated transaction may be authorized as just, fair, and reasonable to wdes. The decision of the board on these matters will rest in their sole discretion, and their concern must be the welfare of wdes and the advancement of its purpose.”
