“The 990 will be reviewed by the ceo and treasurer (or chairman of the board) prior to being filed.”
“Annually, board members are required to approve the conflict of interest policy and complete a disclosure form for any actual or potential conflicts of interest. Any conflicts of interest are discussed by the board and provisions are made for resolving the conflict, either by recusing the member from voting on issues related to the conflict, or by requiring resignation of the board member, if necessary.”
“Compensation process for top official: comparability data is used to obtain a range of compensation for other local organizations of similar asset size and number of employees. The board uses this range of compensation, together with performance goals and objectives expected of the ceo for the program year, to determine compensation for the next twelve months. Compensation process for officers: the ceo sets all other wage ranges based on comparability data for specific jobs in the local area and performance goals and objectives of the key employee for the program year.”
“The organization makes its governing documents and financial statements available to the public by request.”
“The organization has determined that it has no uncertain income tax positions as of december 31, 2025. Also, the organization does not anticipate any increase or decrease in unrecognized tax benefits during the next twelve months that would result in a material change in its financial position. The organization's income tax returns for the years ended after december 31, 2022 remain open for examination.”
