Procedures

Duty to Disclose

In connection with any conflict of interest, an interested person must disclose the existence and nature of his/her interest to the Council’s Nonprofit Services Team.

Procedures for Addressing the Conflict of Interest

An interested person is not permitted to verify results for a nonprofit organization that they have previously or currently work/volunteer for in any capacity. The interested person shall not actively participate in the discussion of, or vote on issues related to the nonprofit organization that they have a conflict of interest with.
