Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11b Friends of the Scarsdale Library Inc. has its Form 990 prepared by an outside accounting firm and has established the following review process to ensure the information reported is complete and accurate. When the form 990 has been prepared, and reviewed by management. A redacted draft of the 990 is electronically distributed to the board of directors for review and discussion prior to filing the 990 with the IRS. Once the board has approved the redacted 990, management gives approval to file the 990 with the IRS. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c In connection with any actual or possible conflict of interest, an Interested Person must disclose in writing 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 arrangement. After disclosure of the Financial Interest and all material facts, and after any discussion with the Interested Person, the Interested Person 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. To ensure the Organization operates in a manner consistent with charitable purposes and does not engage in activities that could jeopardize its tax-exempt status, periodic reviews shall be conducted. Each director, principal officer, and 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 conflicts of interest policy, (b) Has read and understands the policy, (c) Has agreed to comply with the policy, and (d) Understands the Organization is charitable and in order to maintain its federal tax exemption it must engage primarily in activities that accomplish one or more of its tax-exempt purposes. An Interested Person may make a presentation at the governing board or committee meeting, but after the presentation, the Interested Person shall leave the meeting during the discussion of, and the vote on, the transaction or arrangement involving the possible conflict of interest. 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. After exercising due diligence, the governing board or committee shall determine whether the Organization 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. If a more advantageous transaction or arrangement is not reasonably 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 the Organization's 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 into the transaction or arrangement. If the governing board or committee has a reasonable cause to believe a member has failed to disclose actual or possible conflict of interest, it shall inform the member of the basis for such believe and afford the member an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose. If, after hearing the member's response and after making further investigation as warranted by the circumstances, the governing board or committee determines the member failed to disclose an actual or possible conflict of interest, it shall take appropriate disciplinary and corrective action. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19 The Organization makes its form 990 available for public inspection as required under section 6104 of the Internal Revenue Code.
