“The governing board is comprised of representatives from member associations. Each of these representatives is a director of the board.”

“The members are associations who pay dues for membership in the organization. Each member elects a representative to serve as a director in the organization. The membership has a term of one year and comes up for renewal at the annual meeting of members. Renewal is granted by a three-quarters majority vote of directors and is contingent upon the member's remaining in good standing.”

“The form 990 is reviewed by the executive director and treasurer and a copy is given to the board for review prior to filing the return.”

“The conflict of interest policy requires that periodic reviews be conducted to ensure that vcpe operates in a manner consistent with charitable purposes. These reviews shall at a minimum include a) whether compensation arrangements and benefits are reasonable based on competent survey information and the result of arm's-length bargaining, and b) whether partnerships, joint ventures, and arrangements with management organizations conform to the written policies of vcpe, are properly recorded, reflect reasonable investment or payments for goods and services, further charitable purposes and do not result in inurement, impermissible private benefit or in an excess benefit transaction.”

“Compensation of the executive director is established by the executive committee with consideration given to job duties, experience, and comparable market salary information.”

“The executive director prepares budgeted salary projections as a part of the overall annual planning and budgeting process. This budget is then approved by the board.”

“Governing documents are made available upon request.”
