Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11

“The board of directors' audit committee is responsible for recommending to the board of directors the retention and termination of the independent auditor and may negotiate the independent auditor's compensation, on behalf of the board of directors. The audit committee reviews the scope and planning of the audit. The audit committee confers, reviews, and accepts the audit. Upon completion of the audit, the tax preparer provides a copy of the draft 990 to the audit committee for review and acceptance. The audit committee reviews form 990 and sees that tax prepare properly makes any requested changes. After the audit committee accepts the return, it is made available to the full board of directors before filing. If no changes are requested, the audit committee authorizes the filing of form 990.”

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

“Annually, board members must sign a conflict of interest form which is monitored by the officers.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

“The board reviews all compensation amounts annually.”
