Form And Line ReferenceGrantmaker's Description of How Grants are UsedFormAndLineReferenceDesc
ExplanationThe Houston Parks Board (HPB) solicits gifts and bequests for park acquisitions, additions, and improvements within the City of Houston and the surrounding metropolitan area. From time to time, it transfers land to or purchases land for the City of Houston or the Houston Parks Board LGC, a local government corporation that was formed to hold the parkland and improvements managed by HPB for the City of Houston. HPB also acts as an agent for the City of Houston regarding certain funds that are maintained on behalf of the City. Two such funds provide scholarships to students. The Houston Parks and Recreation Department's A.S.K. Group and the First Tee Program determine the ASK and Dave Marr scholarship recipients and have HPB write a check directly to the school the student is attending. The ASK program and the First Tee Program monitors the initial and ongoing qualification of scholarship recipients, not HPB.ExplanationTxt

Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c: Explanation of Monitoring and Enforcement of ConflictsMembers of the HPB Board of Directors and Staff complete disclosure statements annually and update them when changes occur from the disclosure statement on file at HPB. If a conflict of interest is disclosed, the Governance & Nominating committee reviews the material facts associated with the potential conflict. If the committee determines a conflict exists, the member is separated from influencing all future board actions with respect to such conflict.
Form 990, Part VI, Line 15a: Compensation Review & Approval Process - CEO, Top ManagementA subcommittee of the Executive Committee of HPB conducts an evaluation review for the top management official. The evaluation includes a performance review, an evaluation of compensation for comparable positions, and feedback from other board members.

Form 990, Part XI, Line 9 - Other Changes in Net AssetsHouston Parks Board Foundation (the Foundation) was created in 2011 as a nonprofit corporation for the benefit of Houston Parks Board (HPB). Effective June 30, 2016, the Foundation amended its bylaws to require that 51% of the Foundation's Board of Directors be appointed by HPB to allow the Foundation to be classified as a Type I supporting organization controlled by HPB. Prior to the change, and in accordance with GAAP, HPB's balance sheet reflected an asset called "Interest in Houston Parks Board Foundation" which represented the net assets of the Foundation. Due to the change, the financial information of both entities is consolidated in HPB's financials and that "asset" no longer appears. The adjustment in Part XI removes this amount.
