IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0The draft 990 is initially reviewed by the Executive Director and Operations Manager and then shared with the board for final approval before filing with the IRS.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1Annually require all board members to reassess and resign the conflict of interest policy.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2Comparability data was procured by Adler & Colvin lawfirm, and provided to the board. The Executive Director reviewed the comparability data and submitted a salary recommendation to the board, and then recused himself while the board deliberated and approved an official salary for the ED.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt3Compensation for key employees [high-level directors] was decided to be equal to that of the Executive Director, so the data and deliberations for the Executive Director's salary were in effect replicated for the salary for key employees.
