“The parks foundation is made up of members who pay annual dues.”

“Names of new board of directors are proposed by a nominating committee of existing directors at a regularly scheduled meeting of the total board of directors. The total board interviews and votes on those proposed directors and presents the list of selected candidates for approval to the parks foundation membership at its annual meeting.”

“The parks foundation membership have the right to approve directors and those rights vested in members under the washington nonprofit corporation act.”

“A copy of the tax return is provided to the governing body to review before they sign the return.”

“Whenever any member of the board of directors first becomes aware of a direct, indirect or potential conflict of interest concerning any matter that is before the board of directors, that member is required to promptly disclose the existence of the conflict of interest. Any disclosure will be duly recorded in the board minutes. The member may thereafter engage in discussion of the matter and may vote unless the board believes the nature and extent of the conflict of interest warrants the exclusion from the discussion and vote. Members of the board of directors will automatically be deemed to have agreed to comply with this policy by accepting appointment to the board of directors.”

“The parks foundation board of directors establishes the salary of the executive director. Salaries may be determined by the following factors: availability of funds, merit increase for demonstrated performance and initiative, changes in the cost of living of the employment market, promotion or substantial change in job responsibilities and comparable salaries in similiar organizations. The executive director will establish salaries of staff within the budget approved by the board of directors.”
