National Building Museum

“The founding and honorary trustees cannot vote. Composition of the executive committee is: chair, secretary, treasurer, executive director, chairs of standing committees, and committee chairs. The executive committee shall have the full authority, right, and power to act for the board, with the proviso that any such actions are reported to the board of trustees as soon as practically possible.”

“The museum's form 990 undergoes a number of internal and external reviews before it is filed with the irs. The return is reviewed by the museum's finance team and posted on the board portal before it is filed with the irs.”

“Board members and employees, upon hiring, receive a copy of the museum's code of conduct and sign off on it, indicating acceptance of the terms. Throughout the year, the museum is alert and watches for potential conflict of interest issues throughout its business dealings. They would enforce the policy if one were to materialize. Board members complete and sign a specific conflict of interest disclosure form.”

“The salary of the executive director is authorized by the chairman of the board. Substantiation of the salary of the executive director in place is provided via an aggregate salary line item budget to actual monthly report to the finance and executive committees. Annual increases, if any, are reviewed as a part of the budget process and presented and voted upon by the finance and executive committee. A compensation committee, established in 2013, reviews and approves that salary. The museum uses the association of art museum director's salary survey for comparability as well as internal equity within the organization.”

“The organization makes its governing documents and conflict of interest policy available to the public on a case by case basis in response to requests, and financial statements are made available to the public upon request.”
