Supplemental Narrative
Additional Explanations
Pt VI, Line 7A
“The organizations board of directors is a self - perpetuating board. The board accepts resignation and appoints new board members from time to time”
Pt VI, Line 11B
“The board reviews the annual form 990 after it has been completed by the outside accountant. Those reviewing this form include the president, vice-president and treasurer of the board. Information needed to complete the form 990 was obtained from the books and records of the entity and by answers to questions received from various personnel of the entity.”
Pt VI, Line 12C
“The board of directors regularly monitors and enforces the conflict of interest policy. The policy requires all board members to disclose any personal, financial, or other interests that could influence their decisions related to the organization. Disclosures must be made promptly upon recognition and are evaluated by the board (excluding the interested individual) to determine if a conflict exists. If a conflict is found, the affected person is barred from participating in discussions, deliberations, or votes on the matter.”
Pt VI, Line 15B
“Employee compensation is determined by the board of directors after reviewing factors such as average compensation levels for employees at similar organizations (comparability data). All compensation decisions made by the board of directors are documented in minutes of the board.”
Pt VI, Line 19
“All governing documents, policy manuals, financial statements and copies of form 990 are made available to anyone who requests this information in addition to being reviewed and monitored by the board.”
Pt VI, Line 15A
“Top management compensation is determined by with consultation with board treasurer and chairman. We have looked at comparability data and i think its obvious it is a good deal below other comparable salaries for this field.”
Form 990, Part IX, Line 24E
