“There is no committee with authority to act on behalf of the governing body.”

“A complete copy of the form 990 is provided to the governing body members for their review before filing.”

“Full disclosure, by notice in writing, is made by an interested person to the full board of directors in all actual or potential conflicts of interest. Following full disclosure of a possible conflict of interest, the board of directors determines whether a conflict of interest exists and, if so the board votes to authorize or reject the transaction or take any other action deemed necessary to address the conflict and protect amcs's best interests. Both votes shall be by a majority vote without counting the vote of any interested director, even if the disinterested directors are less than a quorum provided that at least one consenting director is disinterested. An interested person does not participate in any discussion or debate of the board of directors, or of any committee or subcommittee thereof in which the subject of discussion is a contract, transaction, or situation in which there may be a perceived or actual conflict of interest. However, they may be present to provide clarifying information in such a discussion or debate unless objected to by any present board or committee member. A copy of this policy is given to all board members, staff members, volunteers or other key stakeholders upon commencement of such person's relationship with amcs or at the official adoption of stated policy. Each board member, officer, staff member, and volunteer signs and date the policy at the beginning of her/his term of service or employment and each year thereafter. Failure to sign does not nullify the policy.”
