Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11Management reviews and evaluates the information being compiled for the federal Form 990 in advance of the return's finalization. After review Management presents draft copies of the federal Form 990 to the Audit Committee, of the Board of Directors, for further review, and clarification. After updating the federal Form 990 with any resulting changes, staff presents the federal Form 990 to the general Board of Directors in advance of the return's finalization. If no comments are received after 7 days, the final federal Form 990 is filed with the Internal Revenue Service.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cThe Board annually reviews the conflict of interest policy and discloses any potential conflict of interest. All FLA Staff and Board of Directors sign a Conflict of Interest Disclosure Statement annually. The signed documents are reviewed by the Chief of Staff & General Counsel and kept by the VP Finance & Chief Operating Officer. The COI Policy is always taken into consideration when there is the potential for conflict, particularly when signing new contracts or beginning new relationships. Any possible appearance of conflict of interest that arises in the course of business is researched to determine the existence of a conflict. If a contract is to be made with a related party, it is disclosed to the Board and a vote is taken according to IRS regulations. If FLA staff members identify a conflict of interest, the Chief of Staff & General Counsel or VP Finance & Chief Operating Officer share this information with the Executive Committee of the Board for its action. Board members are precluded from voting on matters for which a conflict exists.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15FLA's Executive Committee members meet to set the compensation for officers; they are uncompensated members of the Board of Directors.
