HOWEVER, THE MAJORITY OF THE FINANCIAL ACTIVITY FOR THE ORGANIZATION OCCURS DURING THE THEATRICAL SEASON, WHICH RUNS FROM SEPTEMBER THROUGH MAY. IT IS DURING THIS TIMEFRAME THAT THE ORGANIZATION HAS REGULAR BOARD MEETINGS. AT THE FIRST BOARD MEETING OF THE SEASON, IN SEPTEMBER, THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY IS DISTRIBUTED TO EACH DIRECTOR. THE DIRECTOR MUST COMPLETE THE SIGNATURE PAGE OF THE POLICY, CONFIRMING THAT THEY UNDERSTAND THE POLICY, AND RETURN THAT PAGE TO THE GENERAL MANAGER. ANY MEMBER OF THE BOARD WHO REFUSES OR FAILS TO SIGN SUCH A STATEMENT SHALL BE PROHIBITED FROM PARTICIPATING IN DISCUSSION OR ACTION BY THE BOARD. IF THEN DURING THE YEAR A DIRECTOR LEARNS OF A CONFLICT OF INTEREST, THEY MUST DISCLOSE IT TO THE BOARD. SUCH A CONFLICT WILL BE ENTERED INTO THE MINUTES OF THE MEETING. AT FUTURE DISCUSSIONS OR VOTES TO WHICH THIS CONFLICT IS RELATED, THE DIRECTOR IS RECUSED FROM THE MEETING. TO ENSURE THE UTMOST EFFICACY OF THIS POLICY, THE GENERAL MANAGER CONDUCTS PERIODIC REVIEWS TO ENSURE THE SIGNING OF THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST STATEMENT AND ALSO REVIEWS THE ACTIONS TAKEN BY THE BOARD ON BEHALF OF THE ORGANIZATION. SUCH REVIEW IS INTENDED TO ENSURE THAT THE ORGANIZATION CONTINUES AT ALL TIMES TO BE OPERATED EXCLUSIVELY FOR THE ACHIEVEMENT OF ITS PUBLIC CHARITABLE PURPOSES, RATHER THAN FOR THE BENEFIT OF ONE OR MORE PRIVATE PERSONS. |
