“The full board of directors and officers of copa act as the full board of directors and officers for the filing organization.”

“The following acts require approval from the sole member: (1) amendments to the organization's bylaws, and (2) borrowing money from any lender.”

“Copies of the 990 and all related schedules were sent to the board of directors for review after being reviewed and approved by the audit committee. Any questions the board might have were directed back to the chief executive officer and chief financial officer. The 990 was then discussed at a full board meeting and approved by the board of directors.”

“Enforcing agency policy on conflicts of interest is the responsibility of the enterprise risk, audit, and finance committee of the board of directors. This committee dedicates one meeting per year to: (1) ensure all conflict of interest statements have been received, (2) ensure conflicts are fully understood and implications discussed and disposition agreed upon, (3) ensure that board members with conflicts, if any, follow policy with respect to voting on matters that they may have a conflict with, and (4) recommend enhancements to existing forms, policies, and training related to conflicts of interest.”

“The organization does not currently have any paid officers or employees. However, a compensation policy is in place that would require the board as a whole, as the executive committee, to review the compensation of all officers by comparing their compensation to compensation of individuals in like positions, in like organizations using forms 990, compensation studies, and other available data. The board or committee would then approve any changes in compensation based on this information.”

“The organization will provide, in a timely manner, copies of all policies, the audited financial statements, and/or the governing documents, when requested in writing or in person.”
