New idea, let's take Owen's dirty bathroom idea and then we print out these threads about the BIRHC and the FUC or the now called FUF. Not only do the board members have to use the dirty bathroom but they have to read while they are sitting in there all the boring posts. That would for sure get them to move off the Island. We would have a disappearing board with good teeth because they would now have access to a dentist as Owen quoted. Any support on this??

I believe everyone in business can attest to the fact that the IRS takes steps year after year to look into every aspect of your business. It is also now clear that they are looking into non profits as well and such documentation can be seen here.

Several highlights in this document that pertain to the findings in the 990 filings:
"Irrespective of size, a governing board should include independent members and should not be dominated by employees or others who are not, by their very nature, independent individuals because of family or business relationships. The Internal Revenue Service reviews the board composition of charities to determine whether the board represents a broad public interest, and to identify the potential for insider transactions that could result in misuse of charitable assets. The Internal Revenue Service also reviews whether an organization has independent members, stockholders, or other persons with the authority to elect members of the board or approve or reject board decisions, and whether the organization has delegated control or key management authority to a management company or other persons. Organizations that file Form 990 will find that Part VI, Section A, Lines 1, 2 ,3, and 7 ask questions about the governing body. "
Going forward it is time for all public bodies to be representative of just that, the public at which they serve. It is clear that the IRS is taking steps to assure that this is the case. failure to comply can call into question compensation those that could benefit financially from the body itself as a result of their relational ties to the board of directors, those imposing taxes on the non profit itself.

Mr. Taylor,
You appear to be a detailed, numbers oriented person on a mission. What you seem to be missing is that it will take time to interview 8 to 12 interested dentists to fill the vacancy. After they select the right person it appears they or the dentist will have to refurnish the office with all new or used dental equipment. That can not happen overnight. As a business person I can say that the loss of $325 a month is simply a cost of doing business for the health center and a write off. For what it's worth in your continued pursuit.
