Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 8B

No committees have the authority to act on behalf of the board.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B

The executive director and the treasurer review the draft of the form 990. The full board reviews and approves the final version of the form 990. The record of its review is included in the board minutes. This occurs before the official filing deadline.

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

Conflict of interest policy: all board members are required to sign an individual copy at the first meeting of the year. We enforce the policy by announcing any potential conflicts of interest to the board, and in the case of land or easement acquisition involving advisory council members, to the advisory council and solicit feedback.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15A

The salary of the executive director is annually reviewed and approved by the compensation committee. The compensation committee uses geographical and industry data as well as organizational capacity factors to determine compensation.

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

Governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements are available to the public upon request.

Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

FORM 990, PART XII, LINE 2C:

The board of directors assumes the responsibility for oversight of the review of the sustainable iowa land trust financial statements and selection of their independent accountant. Silt does not have a separate audit committee.

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

The organization is exempt from income taxes under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code and a similar section of the iowa income tax law, which provides an income tax exemption for corporations organized and operated exclusively for religious, charitable, or educational purposes. The internal revenue service has not determined that the organization is a private foundation. The organization files information returns in the u.s. Federal jurisdiction. The organization follows the accounting standards to evaluate uncertain tax positions and has determined that it was not required to record a liability related to uncertain tax positions.
