Form 990, Part VI, Line 8: Explanation of No Contemporaneously Documentation of Meetings
There were no committees with authority to act on behalf of the governing body.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review Process
The form was sent to each board member as soon as it was received from the preparer. Any questions were referred to the executive director to be discussed with the preparer, who then reported back to the board. The entire board discussed the final form at a recent meeting and voted to approve it.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c: Explanation of Monitoring and Enforcement of Conflicts
The following is an excerpt from the Organization's bylaws:Section 1. Purpose of Conflict of Interest PolicyThe purpose of this conflict of interest policy is to protect DARCCs tax-exempt-interest when it is contemplating entering into a transaction or arrangement that might benefit the private interest of an officer or director, or employee of the corporation or any disqualified person as defined in Section 53.4958-3 of the IRS Regulations and which might result in a possible excess benefit transaction as defined in Section 4958(1)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code and as amplified by Section 53.4958 of the IRS Regulations. This ipolicy is intended to supplement but not replace any applicable state and federal laws governing conflict of interest applicable to nonprofit and charitable organizations.Section 2. DefinitionsA. Interested Person. Any Director, member of a committee with governing board delegated powers, or any other person who is a disqualified person as defined in Section 4958(f)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code and as amplified by Section 53.4958-3 of the IRS Regulations, who has a direct or indirect financial interest, as defined below, is an interested person.B.Financial Interest. A person has a financial interest if the person has, directly or indirectly, through business, investment, or family:1. An ownership or investment interest in any entity with which DARCC has a transaction or arrangement;2.A compensation arrangement with DARCC or with any entity or individual with which DARCC has a transaction or arrangement; or3.A potential ownership or investment interest in or compensation arrangement with, any entity or individual with which DARCC is negotiating a transaction or arrangement.Compensation includes direct and indirect remuneration as well as gifts or favors that are not insubstantial.A financial interest is not necessarily a conflict of interest. Under Section 3, paragraph B, a person who has a financial interest may have a conflict of interest only if the appropriate governing board or committee decides that a conflict of interest exists.Section 3. Conflict of Interest Avoidance ProceduresA. Duty to Disclose. In connection with any actual or possible conflict of interest, an interested person must disclose the existence of the financial interest and be given the opportunity to disclose all material facts to the directors and members of committees with governing board delegated powers considering the proposed transaction or agreement.B.Determining Whether a Conflict of Interest Exists. After disclosure of the financial interest and all material facts, and after any discussion with the interested person, he/she shall leave the governing board or committee meeting while the determination of a conflict of interest is discussed and voted upon. The remaining board or committee members shall decide if a conflict of interest exists.C.Procedures for Addressing the Conflict of Interest:1. An interested person may make a presentation at the governing board or committee meeting, but after the presentation, he/she shall leave the meeting during the discussion of, and the vote on, the transaction or arrangement involving the possible conflict of interest.2.The chairperson of the governing board or committee shall, if appropriate, appoint a disinterested person or committee to investigate alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement.3.After exercising due diligence, the governing board or committee shall determine whether DARCC can obtain with reasonable efforts a more advantageous transaction or arrangement from a person or entity that would not give rise to a conflict of interest.4.If a more advantageous transaction or arrangement is not reasonable possible under circumstances not producing a conflict of interest, the governing board or committee shall determine by a majority vote of the disinterested directors whether the transaction or arrangement is in DARCCs best interest, for its own benefit, and whether it is fair and reasonable. In conformity with the above determination, it shall make its decision as to whether to enter the transaction or arrangement.D. Violations of the Conflict of Interest Policy.1. If the governing board or committee has reasonable cause to believe a member has failed to disclose actual or possible conflicts of interest, it shall inform the member of the basis for such belief and afford the member an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose.2.If, after hearing the members response and after making further investigation as warranted by the circumstances, the governing board or committee determines the member has failed to disclose an actual or possible conflict of interest, it shall take appropriate disciplinary and corrective action.Section 4. Records of Board and Board Committee ProceedingsThe minutes of meetings of the governing board and all committees with board delegated powers shall contain:A.The names of the persons who disclosed or otherwise were found to have a financial interest in connection with an actual or possible conflict of interest, the nature of the financial interest, any action taken to determine whether a conflict of interest was present, and the governing boards or committees decision as to whether a conflict of interest in fact existed;B.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 notes taken in connection with the proceedingsSection 5. Annual StatementsEach Director and each member of a committee with governing Board delegated powers shall annually sign a statement which affirms such person:A. Has received a copy of the conflict of interest policy;B.Has read and understands the policy;C.Has agreed to comply with the policy; andD. Understands DARCC is a charitable organization and in order to maintain its federal tax exemption it must engage primarily in activities which accomplish one or more of its tax exempt purposes.Section 6. Periodic ReviewsTo ensure DARCC operates in a manner with charitable purposes and does not engage in activities that could jeopardize its tax-exempt status, periodic reviews shall be conducted. The periodic review shall, at a minimum, including the following subjects:A.Whether compensation arrangements and benefits are reasonable, based on competent survey information, and the result of arms-length bargaining; andB.Whether partnerships, joint ventures, and arrangements with management organizationsConform to DARCCs written policies, are properly recorded, reflect reasonable investment or payments for goods and services, further charitable purposes, and do not result in inurement, impermissible private benefit, or in an excess benefit transaction.Section 8. Use of Outside ExpertsWhere conducting the periodic reviews as provided in Article VII, Section 7, DARCC may, but need not, use outside advisors. If outside experts are used, their use shall not relieve the governing board of its responsibility for ensuring periodic reviews are conducted.
