“After the outcome of the independent audit is reviewed by the board, the form 990 is presented to all board members at the following monthly board meeting.”

“All employees and board of directors complete and sign a conflict of interest reporting statement, annually, during the month of july. The reporting statement, form os 6016, is provided by the state of california, health and human services agency, department of developmental services (dds). The information is reviewed and signed by the human resources director or the executive director of the regional center. Reporting statements are filed in human resources. Copies of reporting statements for the executive director and the board of directors are sent to dds for review. If a potential conflict of interest is identified for any employee, board member, or the executive director, a conflict resolution plan is submitted to dds, the local area board, and the local state council, for review, approval, or further direction.”

“The executive director's compensation is established through a contract which is developed and determined by an independent vote from the board of directors. The steps for the vote are as follows: first, a salary survey of other executive directors in the regional center system and executive directors of other similar non-profit organizations is conducted to assess comparable compensation; second, an outside consultant reviews the contract with the board of directors; third, the board assesses the findings and makes an independent vote with the interested party not present. The ongoing annual compensation is derived by a performance review of the annual goals and essential job functions of the executive director. The evaluation is completed by the board of directors with input from the human resources director. The evaluation determines if a merit increase or any other performance compensation award is appropriate.”

“The federal form 990 is available upon request. All other documents are posted on san gabriel/pomona regional center website.”
