“The organization's tax accountants prepare form 990 for review by the board of directors and senior management. The final form 990 is distributed to all board members for their review and comment before filing.”

“At the board meeting during which a new officer or director is elected, he/she is asked to sign the conflict of interest policy forms prepared by our attorney. At the annual meeting, all directors update their forms for the following year. If a conflict arises, the board will determine the appropriate course of action as provided in the conflict of interest policy. This will include requiring directors with conflicts to abstain from voting on transactions with which they may have a conflict, and board deliberations to decide whether to enter in to a transaction, and if so, to ensure that the terms of the transaction are reasonable.”

“Pursuant to its executive compensation policy, the board of directors reviews the compensation arrangements of the chief executive officer, the chief financial officer (or any person performing the functions of the chief executive officer or chief financial officer, regardless of title), and any employee whose total annual compensation exceeds $100,000, to determine that the arrangements are reasonable. In making that determination, the board may consider the following factors, among others: compensation levels paid by similarly situated organizations for functionally comparable positions; the availability of similar services in the geographic area; independent compensation surveys compiled by independent firms; actual written offers from similar institutions competing for the person's services. These determinations are made at the time of hire, when compensation is modified, or at termination, and are documented contemporaneously.”

“The organization's governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements are available upon request during regular business hours and when appropriate staff is available. In addition, the organization's form 990 is also available upon request and at websites such as guidestar as soon as reasonable practicable after filing with the irs.”
