Governance Explanations

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 11B

The organization hires a cpa firm to complete the 990 on its behalf. A draft of the return is provided to the executive director for review and comment. The executive director then reviews the return with the board of directors before the return is filed.

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 12C

Actual or possible conflicts of interest must be disclosed. The person affected is given the opportunity to disclose all material facts to the directors and members of committees with governing board delegated powers considering the proposed transaction or arrangement. After disclosure of the conflict and all material facts, and after any discussion with the affected person,that person shall leave the governing board or committee meeting while the determination of a conflict of interest is discussed and voted upon. The remaining board or committee members shall decide if a conflict of interest exists. And if so will determine the actions to be taken. If the board or committee has reasonable cause to believe that a person has failed to disclose an actual or possible ocnflict of interest, it shall inform the person of the basis for such belief and afford the person an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose. If after hearing the response of the person and making such further investigation as warranted by the circumstances, the board or committee determines that the person has in fact failed to disclose an actual or possible conflict of interest, it shall take appropriate disciplinary and corrective action.
