Called The Laurel Independent, it joined the organization's other two papers, the Hyattsville Life & Times and the College Park Here & Now. Form 990, Part V, Line 3b We have not filed Form 990-T because e-filing has been halted from Jan. 15 till March 17, 2024. We will file our Form 990-T then. We ask that any penalties be waived due to this fact. Also, please waive any penalties attributable to our late filing of this Form 990. Our long-time CFO left our organization in January of 2023, our nonprofit organization elected new officers last summer, and we hired a new executive director on September 1. Due to the staff transition, we failed to file a timely application for an extension, submitting the application one day late. This is the first year that we are submitting a Form 990-T. In the process of preparing it, we realized that we needed to amend the forms for the prior two years. Because of our efforts to seek advice and ensure that we were completing and amending the forms correctly, we were not ready to file until after January 15, when e-filing became unavailable for Form 990-T. Again, please waive any penalties that may apply, in light of our good-faith efforts to comply with our obligations. Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 8b The organization has certain committees that meet to make recommendations, and their deliberations are not always documented in an official manner. The committees are not able to make policy or action decisions; their recommendations come before the board of directors for approval or rejection. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b The organization's treasurer has prepared this Form 990-2022, with some help and oversight by the organization's executive director and board president and vice president. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19 The organization has placed its conflict of interest policy on our website. We are quite ready to supply our governing documents and financial statements to anyone who wishes to see them. The organization has not received such requests, and we have not posted these documents on our website. The board is planning to issue our first annual report to the public in 2024, and it will include financial information. Form 990, Part IX, Line 11g Payments to contractors (editors, ad salespeople, layout artists, website administrator, business administrator). Our 2022 Form 990 was due Nov. 15, because our fiscal year ends June 30. Our long-time CFO left our organization in January 2023, our nonprofit organization elected new officers this summer, and we hired a new executive director on September 1. Due to the staff transition, we failed to file a timely application for an extension, submitting the application one day late. Also, this is the first year that we realized that we have unrelated business income and are submitting a Form 990-T. In the process of preparing it, we realized that we needed to amend the forms for the prior two years. Because of our efforts to seek advice and ensure that we were completing and amending the forms correctly, we were not ready to file until after January 15, when e-filing became unavailable for Form 990-T. Please waive any penalties that may apply, in light of our good faith efforts to comply with our obligations.
