“Meetings on pointe, inc., an association management company, performs management responsibilities.”

“Hr houston has approximately 2,000 dues-paying members, the majority of whom are working in the human resource profession.”

“Members elect the board of directors for the association.”

“Members approve changes to the bylaws and approve the financial statement at the annual business meeting.”

“The office posts an electronic copy of the prepared documents on the secure board of directors web page for the directors review. At the next meeting, the form 990 is placed on the agenda. Board members acknowledge that they have reviewed the document and the president signs it. The office mails it to the irs.”

“At the first meeting of each board year, both new and returning board members sign a copy of hr houston's conflict of interest policy. The signed documents are retained in the office. A conflict of interest is defined in the policy as a transaction or relationship that presents, or may present, a conflict between a board members obligation to the association and the board members professional, personal or other interests. All board members agree to disclose actual and potential conflicts of interest through the annual disclosure form and whenever a conflict of interest arises. The board of directors shall make a determination as to whether a conflict of interest exists and what subsequent action, if any, is appropriate.”

“All required public documents are available upon request.”

“The association's policy is to prepare financial statements on the modified cash basis of accounting, which is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than generally accepted accounting principles; consequently, certain revenues and the related assets are recognized when received rather than when earned and certain expenses and purchases are recognized when cash is disbursed rather than when the obligation is incurred. Accounts payable are recorded when approved by the board.”
