“Planned parenthood great plains ("ppgp") is the sole member of the filing organization.”

“Directors are deemed elected by ppgp, the sole member, by reason of having been elected as directors of ppgp. As a result, the same individuals serve on the board of directors of ppgp, the sole member, and the board of directors of ppgp votes, the filing organization.”

“The irs form 990 information is gathered by the ppgp chief financial officer and finance staff. It is given to the board appointed cpa firm. The cpa firm completes the form 990. The initial draft of the form 990 is reviewed by the ppgp chief executive officer, chief financial officer, and chief operating officer. Copies of the form 990 are provided to each member of the organization's board of directors for review prior to filing with the irs.”

“The chief operating officer of ppgp ensures that conflict of interest forms are completed annually by each board member and that a conflict of interest form is completed by any potential new board member. These forms are reviewed by the board chair and chief executive officer and, as necessary, potential issues are discussed by the executive committee. Depending on the nature of a conflict, the organization may decline to offer board membership to an individual or a board member may be asked to resign. If a conflict arises during the course of a year, the same review process is followed. If a conflict of interest does not prevent a member from serving on the board, strict procedures are followed related to matters being discussed or voted on that relate to a disclosed conflict.”

“The compensation of the president/ceo is set by the ppgp board of directors and reviewed annually. As part of normal business operations, ppgp conducts a wage compensation review every three years which includes salary comparisons based on the labor market and similar non-profit organizations. The process for determining president/ceo compensation is contemporaneously documented in board minutes and includes approval by the ppgp board of directors.”

“The organization's governing documents, conflict of interest policy and audited financial statements are available for public inspection via request to our office for the same period of disclosure set forth in section 6104(d).”

“All salaries and wages are paid by planned parenthood great plains, a related organization, per the terms of a resource sharing agreement between ppgp and ppgpv.”
