“Organization has a voluntary, unpaid, Board of Directors”

“All corporate authority derives from Board of Directors. Board of Directors elects officers of the Board and appoints officers of the corporation. The Board determines compensation and retention of the CEO, COO, and CFO while delegating most other individual personnel matters to management. Personnel, Audit, Finance, and Program committees handle policy and approval of new corporate programs and general policy matters such as salary scales or benefit amounts while daily operations are largely left to management.”

“As described above the decisions are generally policy matters, whether to enter into major new contract negotiations, year end profit sharing plan contribution, specific officer compensation. These decisions are made by Robert's Rules of Order with a vote at the end.”

“990 sent to individual board members for review and approval. Approval to be given by the Board Executive Committee before filing.”

“Annualy request board to renew conflict of interest statement of compliance. Supervisory accounting staff made aware of conflict of interest policies and expected to bring possible conflicts to management's attention.”

“Actual compensation is listed on Schedules A and J and consist of salary, a cafeteria plan benefit credit which goes primarily to offset health insurance costs, an annually determined retirement plan contribution, and an auto allowance for the CEO and COO. The benefit credit is a flat amount which applies equally to all employees depending upon various criteria and the retirement contribution is ERISA compliant company paid and an equal percentage for all qualified employees. Review and approval for officers is by the Board of Directors as described elsewhere on schedule O while other key employees are reviewed and approved per company policies.”

“Board of Directors has previously commissioned independent survey and utilizes other independent publicly available surveys. Additionally the board annually evaluates the CEO and reviews the evaluations of the CFO and COO as part of its annual compensation review for the agency's three key employees. The board of directors approves any changes in compensation for each of the three above employees.”
