Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 1The governing body delegated broad authority to the Executive Committee. The Executive Committee's members include Steve Austin, Mike Mandt, and Michael Francisco, all of whom are also members of the governing body. The Executive Committee shall have the power to bind Summit Ministries and act on behalf of the entirety of the Board of Directors, provided, that, the Executive Committee shall not have the power to delegate any of its powers to any further committee, though it may appoint such committees as it desires for purposes other than to act on behalf of Summit Ministries. By way of example only and without limitation, the Executive Committee may appoint members of additional committees to prepare research and recommend courses of action. Without limiting the foregoing, the Executive Committee shall not have the power to: 1. Elect, appoint or remove any member of the Board of Directors of Summit Ministries; 2. Amend, restate, alter or repeal the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of Summit Ministries; 3. Whether in one or a series of transactions exceeding 250k, approve a plan of merger or approve a sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of the property of Summit Ministries; or 4. Take any other action prohibited by law.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11The Form 990 is prepared by an independent CPA firm and is reviewed by the organization's accountant and Vice-President of Finance and Administration for accuracy. A copy of the return is then provided to the board of directors for their review prior to being filed with the IRS.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cOn an annual basis, board members and officers are required to disclose potential conflicts of interest. This process is overseen by the executive members of the board of directors. If a potential conflict of interest is determined to exist, interested parties are required to excuse themselves from the discussions and any following vote of the board.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15aA compensation review committee, consisting of independent members of the board, is responsible for recommending compensation for the position of President. As part of their process, the compensation review committee references comparability data, including salary and benefits provided to similar positions, at similar organizations. The committee then makes a recommendation to the full board, which votes to approve or deny the recommended compensation package. All related deliberations and decisions are documented in the board minutes. The organization did not compensate any other officers or key employees. Therefore, Line 15b was answered no in accordance with the instructions.
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request.
Form 990, Part XII, Line 2c:The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for oversight of the audit of the organizations financial statements, and selection of the independent accounting firm used. This process has not changed from the prior year.
