The Council recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Management has determined that the Council had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition. The Council is no longer subject to audits by the applicable taxing jurisdictions for periods prior to fiscal year 2007.

F990_P03_S00_L03Form 990, Part III, Line 3The Council's contract with the Westchester County Department of Social Services for the Child Care Scholarship Program for $1,675,000 ended May 2010 and will not be renewed due to budget cuts. This reduction in funding has effected the Council's ability to provide services to the family's in Westchester that would have helped ease the burden of child care costs. This loss of funding also placed an additional burden on the Council's administrative resources as the contract supported a portion of overhead costs. The Council continues to advocate for affordable quality child care in Westchester, by speaking on behalf of a decrease in parent co-payments for subsidy support. We continue to assist the community in finding ways to pay for child care. The Council is also considering reactivating the Sally Zeigler Child Care Scholarship program. The Council is currently researching other sources of funding to help support families in Westchester.
F990_P06_S0B_L11Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11Form 990 Review Procedures - The Controller prepares a draft of the Form 990 and forwards to the Council's independent auditors, the Board Treasurer (or Assistant Board Treasurer in the Board Treasurer's absence) and Executive Director for review and approval. Any questions are discussed and resolved and the Controller makes all changes and resubmits to the audit firm for final review before its submitted to the Board Treasurer and the Executive Director for final approval and signing. All responses and documentation of preparation of the Form 990 are maintained in the Controller's office. The Form 990 is scheduled to be completed and submitted to the IRS by the filing deadline. If for any reason the Form 990 cannot be filed by the filing deadline the independent audit firm submits extension forms to the IRS and provides proof of extension filing to the Controller and/or Executive Director. Board review of the IRS Form 990 is currently performed by the Board Treasurer or Board Assistant Treasurer prior to filing the form with the IRS. Final copies of the Form 990 are distributed via e-mail to all Board members. If there are any major discrepancies noted or changes requested by the Board Treasurer, the Executive Director, independent auditors, Controller or any board member an amended return will be filed. The Council's Form 990 is available on its' website and available upon request.
F990_P06_S0B_L12cForm 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12cConflict of Interest Policy - The policy under recognizes that a conflict of interest may exist whenever the personal or professional interest of a director or officer are potentially at odds with the Council's. The policy has in place mechanisms that identify and resolve matters to ensure that any such transactions are in the best interest of the Council, over and above the interest of the Interest Party where the Interested Party is a director, officer or an immediate family member of a director or officer. A conflict of interest is defined as when actions, contracts, transactions or other dealings between the Council and an Interested Party or a Related Party (defined as any party, group or organization to which an Interested Party has an allegiance or affiliation) may result in a personal benefit to the Interested Party. A conflict of interest may also exit when an Interested Party serves as director, officer or staff member of an organization which competes with the Council or when an Interested Party or Related Party aids, financially or otherwise, such competing organization. i. Upon election or appointment as an officer or director, all officers and directors shall disclose any relevant interest of an Interested Party or Related Party as they related to such director or officer which may pose a potential conflict of interest. Such disclosure must be updated annually. The incoming officer or director will be provided with a copy of the conflict of interest policy. This disclosure statements is updated at least annually. If any question arises in the mind of any director or officer of the Council as to a potential conflict between his or her own individual interest, those of an immediate family member or those of a Related Party and the interest of the Council, full disclosure of all facts pertaining to the potential conflict shall be made to the Board of Directors. Fact-gathering and subsequent review by the Board will determine whether or not an actual conflict exists or would occur. The potential conflict of interest will be addressed by the Council Board as follows: The Board of Directors of the Council shall investigate the potential conflict. The director/officer to whom the potential conflict relates shall not attempt to influence other Directors regarding the matter. The director/officer to whom the potential conflict relates may offer factual information to the Board or Committee, but no director/officer shall vote on their own matter although they may participate in the discussion regarding their exclusion. After conducting due diligence, the Board or Committee will determine by a majority vote of the disinterested directors whether the transaction or arrangement is in the Council's best interest and for its own benefit and whether the transaction is fair and reasonable to the Council and make its own decision about whether or not to entere into or allow the transaction or arrangement. The Board shall also determine whether or not it can obtain a more advantageous transaction or arrangement with reasonable efforts from a person or entity that would not be a conflict of interest. The discussion and outcome of the investigation and due diligence performed by the Board will be recorded in the minutes of the meeting of the Board or Committee and will include the names of the persons who disclosed or were found to have a financial interest in connection with the conflict, the names of the persons who were present for discussions and votes relating to the transaction or arrangement, the content of the discussion, including any alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement, and a record of any votes taken in connection with the discussion.
F990_P06_S0B_L15Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15Compensation Policy - Working under the direction of the Council's Personnel Committee, the Council's Senior Staff updated the agency job classification framework and salary ranges over the course of almost a year overlapping 2007 and 2008. The approach involved (1) factoring in cost of living adjustments for the eight year period since the previous salary review; (2) updating and standardizing job descriptions; (3) clustering jobs in five to six salary ranges; (4) determining the clusters through a standardized rating of accepted job factors: knowledge, problem-solving, supervision, latitude of decision-making, impact, external contacts/relationships, policy involvement and scope of activity. Once defined by the Personnel Committee, the process was carried out by Senior Staff which consisted of the Executive Director, Associate Executive Director, Director of Administration and Personnel, Controller, Director of Employer and Parent Services, Institute of School Age Child Care Director, Director of Registration, Director of Health Services, Director of Professional Development and Director of Community Education. Consensus was reached by Senior Staff on the job factor rating of each job description and the arrangement of all rated job descriptions into six clusters with salary ranges for each, intended to be guidelines subject to the availability of funding. The new salary scale was used to make some initial salary adjustments in 2008 and since then, to guide salaries offered at hiring. In the past three years, funding reductions have made it impossible to provide any raises to Council employees. The entire staff however, has been working on a new approach to performance appraisal which has a greater emphasis on actual results over the display of work attributes, subject to formal approval by the Council Board of Directors. The last review of this policy was performed in 2008.
