Further that the primary legislative goals as stated in N. Bar ry Crigger ' s memo of June 22, 1977, a copy of which is appended to these minutes, be adopted as goals to be achieved and the staff be authorized to gather data in support of these objectives. Further, a fourth goal shall be: Reduction of the excise tax on private foundations from 4\ to 2\ under Section 4940 of the Internal Revenue Code. This tax is excess to the needs of the IRS for auditing purposes and is a burden upon the non-profit sector by virtue of its re ducing grant funds available to that sector. Upon motion duly made, supported and unanimously carried, it RESOLVED that Number 3 of the Drigger ' s report be amended to read as follows: The pay-out requirement of 5\ should be reduced to a smaller figure . The 5\ rate is too high for most foundations and the rate should be lowered or the percentage deleted . Three other possible goals for the legislative program referred to the Conference Mandate Committee for review and presentation to the Board at a later date. (1) Program related problems with the I.R.S. relatin g to expenditure responsibility and program related invest ments . (2) The Charitable deduction. (3) Disbanding of the Advisory Committee to the Treasury. Election/Revocation of Election by an Eligible Organization to Make Expenditures to Influence Legislation The Internal Revenue Service has requested all public charities make an election or revocation of the option to make expenses to influence legislation. A discussion of the advantages and disadvantages followed. The Executive Director assured the trustees that the present accounting system would accomodate the necessary reporting requirements. N. Barry Driggers recommended the election in order that all legislative activity pursued by CMF on behalf of CMF Members be· most assuredly within the purview of accepted activity. Upon motion duly made, supported and unanimously carried, it �-sRESOLVED that CMF make the election under 501 H of the Internal Revenue Code as an eligible 501 (c) (3) organization to make expenditures to influence legislation and that the CMF Articles of Incorporation and By-laws be amended to reflect that election. There being no further business to come before the meeting , the Board of Trustees meeting was adjourned at 12:55 p.m. Secretary~ f~#··~ � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

A Conference Mandate Committee was established for this purpose. In the fall of 1977 the Board of Trustees approved the election to lobby under provision of the Internal Revenue Service to allow public charities to lobby under certain financial limits. CMF worked with member foundations, the Council on Foundations and other associations to bring about changes in the mandatory payout and reduction in the excise tax for non-operating private foundations. Recently the Conference Mandate Committee surveyed the CMF Members on their legislative interests and priorities. It is a concensus that now is the time for foundations to continue working to make themselves and their accomplishments known to Congress. Furthermore, it is the time to establish the next set of steps for legislative relief. Foundations should continue their programs of information and discussion with Congressmen, not only in their own districts, but with relevant committees. Certain Congressmen have advised foundation leaders about the desirability of continuing an active legislative program. The Board of Trustees at their 3/1/79 meeting approved the following legislative program: Legislative Program I. Pursue legislative program in coordination with Council on Foundations and other area associations. A. Parity: Private foundations seek charitable deduction tax benefits equal to public charities, including community foundations. 1. Change the 20% limitation on gifts to a non-operating private foundation to 50%. Under existing law, generally, the amount deductible by an individual taxpayer for contributions to non-operating private foundations cannot exceed 20% of his contribution base (which, in most cases, is his adjusted gross income). On the other hand, an individual taxpayer can deduct up to 50% of his contribution base for gifts to public charity. 2. Increase the deduction allowed a taxpayer to a private f oundation on certain capital gain property. Under existing law, generally, individual taxpayers cannot make a gift of an appreciated capital asset to a non-operating private foun dati on and receive a deduction for the full value of the gift. The amount of t he gift must be �reduced by 40% of the amount of the app reciation. On the other hand, a gift of an appreciated capital ass et to a public charity entitles a taxpayer to a deduction for the full amount given. 3. B. Make the five year carry-forward on excess charitable contributions by individuals and corporations applicable to such contributions to nonoperating private foundations. Technical Revisions (Note: There may be more revisions as the code is studied and Members ' problems are assessed) C. 1. Expenditure Responsibility - Need for a small grant rule , which would allow grants of $10 - 15 , 000 to be free of expenditure responsibility . 2. Relief from the first level penalty tax for unwillful or inadvertent mistakes. Some foundation managers and advisors honestly make a mistake without malice-of-forethought. They are severely penalized and some lawyers suggest relief from the first level penalty . 3. A limitation on who is a disqualified person. It is proposed that the definition of a disqualified person be cut off after the second generation. Such a cut off would allow a reasonable mechanism to keep track of disqualified persons. 4. Extend declaratory judgement procedure to various private foundation issues including set asides, individual grant programs and company scholarship programs. Presently there is no way to litigate. It is proposed to extend declaratory judgement procedure to issues which require advance IRS action. 5. Require one penalty tax at the time of the infraction, rather than increase the tax with each year. Other Legislative Concerns - long term objectives 1. Exclude from the formula used to compute the excise tax on private foundation net investment income any capital gain realized in the fiscal year in question . 2. Allow private foundations to charge their investment expenses to their required pay-out amount for charitable purposes. 3. Seek a reasonablepay-outrate that foundations must meet and allow foundations to retain earnings in excess of this rate in years that they earn more than the pay-out rate. II. Pursue change of certain Internal Reven ue Service regulations which pose hardships on public charities and jeopardise their fund-raising potentials . Of particular concern are the tipping regulations whereby a public charity may .lose its public charity status .._ ~:cause of a private foundation grant . �III. Regularly communicate with elected officials on federal, state and local level about foundation activitie s and concerns . A. Encourage member foundations to report grants and activity to government officials . B. Establish mechanisms to assist Member foundations to report their grants . IV . Continue discussions with Michigan Attorney General ' s Office regarding community and private foundati o n concerns . V. Issue checklist of legal pitfalls of complying with government laws and regulations. Conference Mandate Committee William W. Allen, Chairman Ford A. Anderson Fred W. Corwin Harry A. Davidson N.

While this action was not formally adopted, it was the concensus that after the COF had moved to Washington D.C., retained their staff and established their new service mechanism, a joint dues proposal would be more reasonable to present to each association's membership. New Business William s. White announced that the Executive Committee would meet March 28, 1979 at 10:00 a.m. at the University Club, East Lansing. The next meeting of the Board of Trustees will be April 23 and 24, 1979, Meadowbrook Hall, Rochester. Plans for the Council on Foundations annual conference, May 16 - 18, 1979 in Seattle were announced and trustees were surveyed for their interest in a charter flight. There being no further business to come before the Board, the meeting was adjourned at 11:45 a.m. Secretary � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

As you will recall the Board was known ,as the Steering Committee from 1972 to Novemb er 19 75, when we officially incorporated. From 1972 to the present, 38 individuals representing 31 different organizati ons have served on the Board. Of t he present Board of 21 members: Approximately l/3 have served 7 to 8 years Approximately 1/3 have served 5 t o 6 years Approximately l/3 have served less than f i ve years. The Board members attendance at Board meetings, with few exceptions, is excellent. At the last ten Board meetings 17 out of 21 members have a 70% or better attendance. The fig ures are below: 5 3 7 2 1 2 1 have 100% attendance have 90% attendance have 80% attendance have 70% attendance has 60% attendance have 40% attendance has 0% attendance Of our 21 members: 67% or 14 represent private foundations 14% or 3 represent .community foundations 19% or _i represent corporations/banks 21 . These figures can be compared with the membership figures contained in the Membership Committee report: Present MemberhsiE 77% or 89 are private foundations 13% or 15 are community foundations 8% or 9 are banks 2% or 3 are corporations 116 �Board of Trustees September 11, 1979 Page two The following organizations have had a representative serve on our Board Note: the number in parenthesis indicates if there has been more than o~e representative.

At the last meeting the subject of Board renewal was raised for discussion purposes. I have found that it is healthy for an organization when a Board does talk about itself, and recognizes its strengths and weaknesses. After reviewing the above facts, I think we can feel confident that the Board is dilligently fulfilling its function and that it is representative of the membership. Without imposing a limitation on terms of office we have had a natural turnover. In addition, 27% of our member organizations have had a representative serve on the Board. �I Board of Trustees September 11, 1979 Page three Service by our members on CMF committees and participation in seminars and the annual conference increases the 27%-invo1vement rate considerably. From this brief analysis it appears CMF provides opportunities for a11 who wish to participate to do so. To assure this· good record of service is maintained, I am asking the Executive Director to annually update the repott and give a brief analysis to the Board and the Nominating Committee. , WSW:aco ~ -: I ·~ 0' .

Goals: To establish continuing relationships with national, state and local government representatives. To provide a climate such that legislation advantageous to the growth and encouragement of private foundations will continue. Rationale: Methods: 1) No one will be as interested in carrying the good message about foundations to government representatives as foundations themselves. Section 4945(e) of the Internal Revenue Code specifically provides that taxable expenditures do not include any amounts paid or incurred for "Sel f-Defense" lobbying by foundations, i.e., lobbying with respect to a possible legislative decision which affect the existence of the private foundation, its powers and duties, its tax-ex~mpt status or the deduction of contributions to it. Initial contact will be directed to the Michigan Congressional delegation. 2) At least one CMF representative will be identified in each Congressional district to coordinate plan. 3) Each coordinator will be responsible for contacting each CMF member in their district to describe the necessity to communicate with government representatives and to seek their cooperation in communicating with their elected Congressman personally and by mail. The descriptive materials will be distributed by each coordinator. The CMF office will maintain records for each district. Copies of correspondence and notice of visitations should be forwarded to CMF office by members and/or coordinators. The legislative program may very well give local CMF grantmakers impetus to meet and discuss their mutual concerns. 4) Each CMF member will be encouraged to make member contact each year by letter or in person with at least four of the Michigan Congressional delegation. These contactp may take the form of a personal visit in Michigan or Washington D.C. or a letter. Suggested contacts include two Senators, local Congressmen and Michigan member of House Ways & Means Committee or member of Congressional Committee in particular grantmaking field of interest. 5) The Conference Mandate Committee will encourage Michigan foundations not already doing so to print an annual report. 6) Contacts with government representatives outside Michigan will be encouraged.
