Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11The audit committee reviews form 990 and then the Form 990 goes before the full board to be reviewed and approved prior to filing.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cThe conflict of interest form is completed annually and kept on file. During board meetings, board members who have a relationship with an issue being reviewed do not vote.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15The organization uses national data from the national council on foundations as well as local data from the oshkosh chamber of commerce surveys to determine compensation for top management officials and other officers.
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19The organization maintains copies in the office for inspection. The organization will send a copy to an individual upon request. The organization also provides some documents available on the organization's website.
Form 990, Part XI, Line 2cThe Board of Directors assumes responsibility for the audited financial statements and selection of an independent accountant. This process has not changed from prior year.
In January 2006 the Oshkosh area community foundation - FEIN 39-6041638 and the oshkosh area community foundation corporation- FEIN 39-2034571 requested, from the internal revenue service to reclassification, under treasury regulations 1.170A-9(E)(11). The entities satisfied the requirements to be treated as a single entity and the funds within either of such organization which otherwise met the requirements of treasury regulations section 1.170-(9)(E)(II) would have been treated as component parts of a single community trust if permission was received. One of the results of the ruling would have been to eliminate the form 990 filing requirement for the oshkosh area community foundation corporation. The organizations were subsequently instructed in a letter dated November 30, 2006, in error, to file a group form 990 under treasury regulations sections 1.6033-2 with the oshkosh area community foundation including the oshkosh area community foundation corporation as its local organization. The Taxpayers are each filing a separate return indicated the activities of both entities and the intent that oshkosh area community foundation corporation qualifies for treatment as a component part of the oshkosh area community foundation.
