“Form 990 is presented to the Board of Directors prior to f1l1ng.”
“IDA has a conflict of interest policy which is annually signed by each director, principal officer, voting members and member of a committee with Board delegated powers. IDAs executive committee regularly and consistently monitors and enforces compliance with this policy by reviewing annual statements and taking such other action as are necessary for effective oversight.”
“The process of determining the salary of the Executive Director is based on a complete performance review against strategic goals set for the organization and is in line with the prevailing industry rates and the Executive Director's work experience.”
“IDA's governing documents are posted on the organization website www.documentary.org and on www.guidestar.org. They are also available to the public upon request during normal business hours at the IDA offices.”
“These policies are currently in draft form and will be voted on and implemented in FY 17-18.”
“IDA is exempt from taxation under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3) and California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 23701d. Generally accepted accounting principles provide accounting and disclosure guidance about positions taken by an organization in its tax returns that might be uncertain. Management has considered its tax positions and believes that all of the positions taken by IDA in its federal and state exempt organization tax returns are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. IDA's returns are subject to examination by federal and state taxing authorities, generally for three and four years, respectively, after they are filed.”
