Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDescExplanationExplanationTxt
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 6All people or entities who purchase energy from Glades Electric Cooperative, Inc. are members of the organization. Margins are allocated to members' accounts based on useage. Each member has a single vote regarding election of the governing body of the cooperative.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7aThe members of Glades Electric Cooperative, Inc. may elect members of the governing body at the annual meeting. Each year, an annual meeting is held at which the membership votes to elect three trustees for a three year term.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7bThe membership must approve decisions that involve substantial transfers of cooperative assets, amendments to the cooperative's bylaws, as well as other decisions requiring approval of the membership by law, the articles of incorporation, and/or the cooperative's bylaws.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11The completed 2015 Form 990 was first reviewed by the Chief Financial Officer. A copy of the Form 990 was then presented to the Board of Trustees at a board meeting prior to filing the form with the Internal Revenue Service. Once reviewed and approved by the Board of Trustees, the General Manager/CEO signed and transmitted the return to the Internal Revenue Service.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cCertain cooperative policies are reviewed each month. At any board meeting in which a conflict may arise due to business transactions, the applicable trustees will recuse themselves from voting on the matter.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15The compensation of the General Manager/CEO is determined by using the NRECA's salary survey which includes salary data from other cooperatives. For other employees of the Cooperative, the General Manager/CEO utilizes the NRECA salary survey to make compensation adjustment recommendations to the Board of Trustees for its approval. All non-union personnel receive the Board approved increase. Union personnel receive a contracted amount.
