GLCT does not report the contribution of conservation easements in its revenue and expense statement, balance sheet or Form 990.Part II, Lines 5 and 6 - GLCT keeps track of, and seeks to comply with the requirements set forth in specific easements.No expenses are reported because all monitoring of easements is performed by volunteers. Hours estimated at 7. Part V, Line 4: Intended uses of the endowment fund. GCLT maintains its stewardship funds in mutual funds, the income and principal of which may be used for the properties owned by the Trust. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b The Trust's Treasurer provides the annual financial information to our independent accountant, who prepares a draft of the Form 990. The Treasurer reviews the draft with the accountant, who makes appropriate revisions. A complete copy of the Form 990 is then provided to the Board of Directors to provide an opportunity for comments and corrections. The independent accountant then electronically files the Form 990, as authorized by the Treasurer. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c Under the COI Policy, each officer and director is required to sign a statement acknowledging that he or she has read and understands the policy and agrees to comply with it. Each covered person has a duty under the policy to disclose any actual or possible conflict of interest to the Board of Directors in connection with any proposed transaction or arrangement. After disclosure of an actual or possible conflict, the Board of Directors reviews the facts and (without the presence of the possibly interested party) makes a determination of whether a conflict exists and whether there are more advantageous alternatives that would not give rise to a conflict of interest. The disinterested Board members would after review decide by a majority vote whether to enter into the transaction or arrangement. If the Board of Directors has reasonable cause to believe a violation of the policy has occurred, it will take appropriate disciplinary and corrective action. We do not require covered persons to fill out a form each year, but we do remind each covered member each year of the policy (or require them to sign the statement agreeing to comply with the policy if they are new to the Board). Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19 The Trust makes its governing documents and financial statements available to the public in accordance with state law.
