The 990 is sent to the Board of Directors for review, and each director has the opportunity to ask questions of the preparer to gain an understanding of the 990. Subsequent to this review, the form is filed by the due date. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c The conflict of interest policy is designed to avoid any actual or perceived conflicts of interest between board members, officers, and FBRI. Before board members and officers are elected, written disclosures of interests, relationships and holdings that could potentially result in a conflict of interest are required. These are kept on file and updated as appropriate. During board meetings, disclosures are made of interests in transactions between family or businesses that could result in real or perceived benefit or gain. These are discussed at the meeting to enable us to prepare accurate answers on the 990. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15 The Board of Directors reviews and approves the contract services to be provided by the President. Comparable compensation for qualified persons in similar positions in the local area are reviewed, if available. A designated board member keeps notes of the discussion and the decisions made. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19 Tax returns and financial statements are promptly made available when requested.
