| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11 | Form 990 is prepared by the Arboretum's accountants, reviewed by the Audit Committee and distributed to the Board of Trustees prior to filing. | |
| The Morton Arboretum requires that all trustees, employees, and volunteers disclose and declare any personal, familial, or business relationships, situations, or activities that have the potential to create a conflict of interest or the perception of a conflict of interest. For trustees and employees, the declaration must be renewed annually or when applicable changes in status occur. The Arboretum supplies a Conflict of Interest Declaration form to all trustees and employees for this purpose. Volunteers are informed of this policy at the onset of their service, in the published volunteer handbook, and in periodic communications. For all trustees, employees, and volunteers, relationships or situations that arise that may create or appear to create a conflict of interest must be brought to the attention of the President or the Chairman of the Board of Trustees. | Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c | |
| The process for determining compensation of officers and key employees includes a market analysis of comparable positions from peer gardens and other similar organizations for bench marking purposes. This information is reviewed by internal Human Resources professionals and the compensation committee of the Board of Trustees. The full Board reviews and approves recommendations of compensation matters for the President and CEO. The compensation of other officers and key employees is approved by the compensation committee of the Board. | Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15 | |
