“The form 990 is reviewed by all board members before the return is filed. Following the mailing of the form 990, the return is open for review and inspection by any others at the first association meeting following the filing of this annual return.”

“The officers of the association are the chiefs of the ten departments with the exception of the non-voting secretary and the non-voting treasurer. Each of the department leads is invited to attend meetings at the other departments on a rotating schedule. Each of the departments are open for tours. The officers of the association are required to review the association's policies on "conflict of interest", "whistle blower", and "records retention and destruction" each year.”

“The organization's articles of incorporation included a section which disallows a member to receive direct or indirect benefit from the organization. The board has adopted a written conflict of interest policy signed by the officers and updated annually to disclose their interests that could give rise to conflicts of interest.”

“All final documents are available for review and inspection upon request. With the request of any person or organization; two officers of the board will provide access to the documents at the earliest possible time. The board does not allow public access or review without two officers to avoid possible collusion and to provide the best possible on the spot responses to any questions that may arise since no one officer can be fully knowledgeable in all matters of the board.”
