DescLand Conservation GVLT furthered its mission to conserve working farms and ranches, wildlife habitat, and river corridors in the Gallatin Valley. We identify strategic areas with high conservation values and work to conserve blocks of open land that protect special parts of the valley. We hold 112 conservation easements covering 48,999 acres. Our staff develop long-term relationships with landowners and visit each conservation easement annually to monitor their condition and partner with landowners on restoration projects to improve eroding streambanks, plant vegetation, and enhance floodplains. In FY20 we conserved 1,324 acres of land in the West Gallatin, Big Sky, and Churchill areas. We also diversified our conservation tools by purchasing a unique property adjoining the Middle Cottonwood trailhead to meet both conservation and recreation priorities as part of a new, integrated project model.Desc

DescCommunity Trails - GVLTs Community Trails Program continued to connect people, communities, and the land through collaborative trail projects. In 30 years GVLT has helped create over 80 miles of trail. This year the Path to the M was built, largely funded by a $3.4MM grant GVLT helped secure from the Federal Lands Access Program, to provide a safe route for pedestrians and bicyclists to get from town to two popular trailheads, the College M and Drinking Horse Mountain. This connects Bozemans Main Street to public land in the Bridger Mountains, completing the Main Street to the Mountains vision of GVLTs founder. Our Trails staff worked with 29 volunteer groups to maintain community trails at Drinking Horse, Triple Tree, Painted Hills, Story Mill Spur Trail, Peets Hill, Kirk Hill, and Highland Glen. They also updated kiosk trail maps and a community trail map for publication.Desc

DescEducation GVLT shares monthly news with 15,000 supporters on community trails, private land conservation, and related public events. GVLT publishes audited financial statements, IRS Form 990, and an annual report on the website. The 22 young professionals on the NextGen Advisory Board educate and inspire their peers to volunteer and support GVLT. We joined local land use planning efforts to highlight trail systems and natural resource protection. GVLT hosted 437 volunteers for 1,627 hours of service and educated them all on GVLTs mission and accomplishments. We adapted our free Discovery Walks series into a virtual format and encouraged people to use trails during the Covid-19 quarantine. The Summer Trails Challenge engaged over 1,700 community members to log 58,000 miles of trail use in three weeks.Desc

Part II, Line 3: Explanation of Each Easement ChangeIn June of 2018, the original grantor of the End Family Conservation Easement (2007) requested to add acreage (83 acres) to their original conservation easement property through a restatement of the original deed and grant deed on additional lands. The additional acreage is adjacent to the original property and added to the overall conservation value of the property. The landowner and GVLT worked to clarify the details of the amended acres, developed a letter of intent, and agreed upon how the costs would be covered. GVLT presented the amendment to its board of directors for approval, sought legal counsel to help construct the new terms, and completed necessary due diligence related to the transaction (title policy, mineral remoteness review, update the BDR, and presented the amendment to the local planning authority). The landowners sought an independent appraisal that confirmed that conservation value existed with the addition of acres.
Part II, Line 5: Summarized PolicyThe Gallatin Valley Land Trust is accredited by the national Land Trust Accreditation Commission. GVLTs Monitoring Policy mandates annual monitoring of all conservation easement properties, including personal site visits and interviews with the landowner. It also requires permanent documentation of the monitoring visit and regular communications with landowners. GVLTs Violations Policy emphasizes tools to help prevent violations and outlines the procedure should a violation occur, including the role of staff and Board of Directors, and describes possible enforcement actions.GVLTs template conservation easement reflects our Monitoring and Violations Policies in standard language about access for monitoring (Section 7), baseline documentation reports (Section 9), Prior Notice and Approval (Section 4), and Breach and Restoration (Section 5).
Part II, Line 9: Organization Reporting of conservation easements.Conservation easements accepted by Gallatin Valley Land Trust (GVLT) are not recorded as assets or revenues because the conservation easements provide the land trust with no affirmative rights other than monitoring and enforcing the easement.
Part V, Line 4: Intended uses of the endowment fund.The endowment fund is a depository for special gifts to GVLT from donors who instruct their gifts are for charitable endowment purposes and are not wholly expendable by the institution on a current basis. ENDOWMENT FUNDS ARE TO BE RESPONSIBLY MANAGED TO ALLOW FOR ACCUMULATION AND INCOME FOR EXPENDITURE TO ACCOMPLISH THE ORGANIZATION'S CHARITABLE PURPOSES. THESE PURPOSES INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO, THE PROTECTION, PRESERVATION AND ENHANCEMENT OF THE LANDS ADJACENT TO RIVER AND CREEK CORRIDORS, WILDLIFE HABITAT, RECREATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES, SCENIC OPEN SPACE, AGRICULTURAL LANDS AND HISTORIC SITES; TO ACQUIRE REAL AND PERSONAL PROPERTY INCLUDING EASEMENTS AND CONSERVATION EASEMENTS; AND TO ACQUIRE, CONSERVE, HOLD, AND DISPOSE OF LAND AND INTERESTS IN LAND.
Part XI, Line 2d: Other revenue amounts included in F/S but not included on form 990FUNDRAISING EVENT EXPENSES $88611
Part XII, Line 2d: Other expenses and losses per audited F/SFUNDRAISING EVENT EXPENSES $88611
