Governance Explanations

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

There are no committees that may act on behalf of the full board of directors.

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

A copy of the federal form 990 is provided by the accounting firm and is reviewed by the president and ceo. A copy of the federal form 990 is also forwarded to the finance committee and full board of directors for review. The president and ceo discusses any issues raised during the reviews with the accounting firm. Once all issues have been resolved, the president and ceo receives approval from the finance committee to submit the federal form 990 to the internal revenue service.

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

All employees are given an employee handbook which contains a conflict of interest policy. All employees sign a document acknowledging that they have received the handbook and will read and adhere to its policy. Supervisors monitor work of employees and are mindful of any indicators that would suggest that an employee has a conflict of interest. Board members annually sign a conflict of interest policy disclosure statement. Contracts with payments to outside agencies are reviewed by the president and ceo and checked for any possibility of conflict of interest. When a real or potential conflict of interest exists, the involved individual is expected to disclose the interest and potential conflict to the president, coo or board of directors. The involved individual will be expected to recuse themselves from any decision-making process that involves their commercial interest. The decision-making process should proceed without that individual's involvement and with escalated levels of oversight, including as necessary elevation to the board of directors, for such potential conflict of interest related decisions to ensure that the organization's interests are safeguarded. If an economic decision is made in the normal course of business by a clb employee, officer or board director without disclosure and recusal, upon discovery the president and chairman will make a determination as to rectifying any issues or potential damage, as well as recommending disciplinary actions to be initiated regarding the offending individual.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15

The board of directors designates a "compensation committee" to review the performance of the president and ceo and make any salary recommendations, based on information available to them. The president and ceo conducts a performance evaluation of the coo and recommends an increase (or freeze) for the coo based on comparable data in coordination with available funding for an increase.

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

Clb makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request.
