“A draft copy of the federal form 990 is sent to the investment finance committee of the board of directors for review. The investment finance committee is responsible for assisting management to complete the document consistent with the audit. Investment finance committee meetings are open to any board member who wishes to participate. Once completed, the document is signed and sent to the internal revenue service. Copies of the completed and filed federal form 990 are forwarded to the full board of directors for review and discussion at the next board meeting.”

“Members of quality trust's board of directors complete a conflict of interest form at the beginning of their board service and when a conflict arises or their member status has changed. Staff complete a conflict of interest form annually. Any identified conflicts are immediately reviewed and discussed. If the board of directors or chief executive officer (for staff/volunteers) has reason to believe that an interested party has failed to disclose a potential conflict of interest, it shall inform the person of the basis for such belief and allow the person an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose. If the board of directors or chief executive officer (for staff/volunteers) decides that the interested party has in fact failed to disclose a possible conflict of interest, the board of directors shall take such disciplinary and corrective action as the board of directors shall determine.”

“Quality trust salaries are benchmarked to local salary data surveys from local nonprofit and district government agencies. The board of directors initially approved salary ranges for each position and each year the board of directors reviews overall compensation and benefits as part of the annual budget process. Individual performance raises are made within the established salary range. Cost of living adjustments are made as funds allow and with the approval of the board of directors as part of the annual budget process. The board of directors is responsible for establishing the salary and benefits for the chief executive officer. This survey was last conducted during september 2017.”
