| PART II, LINE 5: | ACCOUNTING FOR CONSERVATION EASEMENTS ("SLT" = "SONOMA LAND TRUST") SEVERAL OF THE LAND HOLDINGS REQUIRE SLT TO ADHERE TO USE LIMITS AND MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS. IF THESE REQUIREMENTS ARE NOT MET BY SLT, THE PROPERTIES WOULD REVERT EITHER TO THE HEIRS OF THE DONOR OR OTHER LAND CONSERVANCY ORGANIZATIONS. ALSO, CERTAIN CONSERVATION LANDS HAVE BEEN PURCHASED USING GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS. SUCH FUNDS RESTRICT THE SALE AND DISPOSITION OF THE PROPERTY UNDER VARIOUS AGREEMENTS. ACCOUNTING POLICY SLT ACQUIRES LAND IN THE FEE TITLE AND SIMULTANEOUSLY CONVEYS A CONSERVATION EASEMENT OVER THE PROPERTY TO A PUBLIC AGENCY OR NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION FOR PERMANENT STEWARDSHIP OF THE EASEMENT. IN SUCH CIRCUMSTANCES, THE LAND IS HELD ON SLT'S BOOKS AT COST OR FAIR MARKET VALUE AS DESCRIBED ABOVE, LESS THE VALUE OF THE EASEMENT CONVEYED TO THE PUBLIC AGENCY. LAND GIFTS, ONCE VALUED, ARE RECORDED AS OTHER INCOME IN ACCOUNT 6850, REAL PROPERTY DONATIONS. EASEMENTS ACQUIRED BY SLT REPRESENT NUMEROUS RESTRICTIONS OVER THE USE AND DEVELOPMENT OF LAND NOT OWNED BY SLT. THESE EASEMENTS GENERALLY PROVIDE THAT THE LAND WILL BE MAINTAINED UNIMPAIRED IN IT'S CURRENT NATURAL, AGRICULTURAL, SCENIC, OR RECREATIONAL STATE. SINCE THE BENEFITS OF SUCH EASEMENTS ACCRUE TO THE PUBLIC UPON ACQUISITION, AND THE EASEMENT THEMSELVES HAVE NO MARKETABLE VALUE ONCE SEVERED FROM THE LAND AND HELD BY STL, THE EASEMENTS ACQUIRED BY SLT ARE REFLECTED AT ZERO VALUE. |
| PART X, LINE 2: | SLT IS A TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE, SECTION 501(C)(3) AND RELATED CALIFORNIA CODE SECTIONS. ACCORDINGLY, NO PROVISION FOR TAXES ON INCOME HAS BEEN REFLECTED IN THESE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. AS OF MARCH 31, 2025, MANAGEMENT EVALUATED SLT'S TAX POSITIONS AND CONCLUDED THAT SLT HAD MAINTAINED ITS TAX-EXEMPT STATUS AND HAD TAKEN NO UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS THAT REQUIRED ADJUSTMENT TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
