Form 990, Part VI, Line 4: Description of Significant Changes to Organizational Documents The Bylaws and other governing documents were reviewed and amended to bring them in line with actual governance organization and decision-making processes observed in prior years: the 2-person membership class that had theoretical oversight and appointment power over the Board of Directors was removed since the membership class powers have never been exercised. The Board of Directors was granted sole voting and governance power. Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review Process Each member of the Board is provided with a copy of the draft return to review in advance of a scheduled conference meeting. The draft return is then discussed and signed off on by the Board before filing. Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c: Explanation of Monitoring and Enforcement of Conflicts If the Board has reasonable cause to believe a member has failed to disclose actual or possible conflicts of interest, it shall inform the member of the basis for such belief and afford the member an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose. If, after hearing the response and after making further investigation as warranted by the circumstances, the Board determines the member has failed to disclose an actual or possible conflict of interest, it shall take appropriate disciplinary and corrective action. Form 990, Part VI, Line 15a: Compensation Review & Approval Process - CEO, Top Management The Executive Director's compensation is determined and regularly monitored by conducting a survey of compensation paid to officers with similar roles and responsibilities at similarly situated organizations, as well as through review of other organizations' form 990 filings. The Board then forms an Executive Committee, composed of Board members with no personal connection to the Executive Director, for the purpose of reviewing and approving the executive director's compensation.
