| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15a | The organization has a rental arrangement with respect to a small house it owns at 491 South Main Street, Andover, Mass. The house is adjacent to one of the organization's largest reservations (conservation land). Effective January 2012, the rent was set at $686 per month, or $8,232 per year, under a three-year rental agreement covering 2012-2014. The tenant is David Dargie, who was an employee of the organization during this period. Under the rental arrangement, Mr. Dargie provides in-kind services in payment of the rental obligation, for which purpose his labor was credited during 2014 at $53/hr. The labor Mr. Dargie performs is skilled land conservation work, the particulars of which are determined and overseen by the organization's land management committee. In addition, as a condition of the rental arrangement, Mr. Dargie is required to be available, including at night, to perform without additional compensation a number of important management, supervisory, and membership duties with respect to the adjacent reservation that can only be performed by someone living on-site. The organization had previously determined that the total amount of the rent charged was not less than the fair market value of the property by obtaining opinions from local, rental real estate brokers, and it updated those opinions with three local, rental real estate brokers as of the end of 2012. Factors that affected the fair market value determination, among others, included (a) local rental rates, (b) the very small size of the house, (c) the additional, uncompensated duties required of the tenant, and (d) the fact that the organization reserves the rights to and does (i) use a portion of the house for storage, (ii) use the grounds of the property for parking and other organizational uses, and (iii) have access to the premises at all times, thus limiting the tenant's full usage. The organization determined the fair market value of Mr. Dargie's services by reviewing the rates charged to the organization, to the Town of Andover, to similar land conservation organizations, and to other entities for similar work by other skilled contractors, as well as the rates Mr. Dargie charges other, unaffiliated persons for his services. In finding that the rate to be credited to Mr. Dargie for his in-kind contribution is not greater than fair market value for his services, the trustees also considered a number of additional benefits received by the organization from having these services performed by Mr. Dargie rather than others. In addition, the organization compared the arrangement with similar arrangements undertaken by one of Massachusetts' largest land conservation entities and the Massachusetts affiliate of a national environmental organization and determined that the instant arrangement was at least as favorable to the organization as those other ones. The trustees of the organization, all of whom are disinterested, unanimously approved the rental arrangement at a meeting after full disclosure and discussion of all the pertinent details of the arrangement and of the fair market value determinations made by the organization with respect to both the rental value of the house and the value of the services Mr. Dargie provides in kind. The trustees' approval, and the basis therefor, was recorded in the organization's minutes. |
