Alfred H. Taylor, Jr.
President

December 22, 1982

Mrs. Dorothy A. Johnson
Executive Director
Council of Mlchigan Foundations
18 North 5th Street
Grand Haven, Michigan 49417
Dear Dottie:
I was pleased to receive your letter of December 20
and to have you confirm that the concept of a Biennial
Conference format will be the subject of discussion
at your January Trustee meeting.
I really have little to cdd to '\-ihat John Harshall
conveyed to you in his letter of December 15. In
brief, I simply think that a biennial format, with
more narrowly focused business mee tings every other
year, makes sense for a number of reasons.
I think it would permit better conferences as to
program substance and would attract more compelling
speakers of recognized national stature. There surely
is little question about attendance as to the present
format, but I do not believe that should be used as a
reason to sustain the full blown annual meeting .
In any event, many thanks for your willingness to
explore the concept; Tom Herbert is more than adequate
representation of the Foundation views, and in the
final analysi s, the CMF Trustees will give the matter
careful consideration. There is little more that I
could ask.
With warmest wishes to you and your family for the
Christmas season and New Ye ar.

Memo to:
From:

Re:

Board of Trustees

William S. White, Chairman
Conference Mandate Committee
Conference Mandate Committee Report

The committee met November 12, 1982 and January 6, 1983 .
and action taken follow :

Matters considered

Legislation and Regulation
-William W. Allen announced that he had written Vice President Bush regarding
the legal impediments to effective foundation philanthropy, prepared by the
Council on Foundations. Mr. Bush responded as to his interest in th e subject
and willingness to seek a solution.
-GAO Study of priva t e f ounda tion t a x returns continues at a slow pace.
~-; 1. t:.~ tile death of Congressman Rosenthal , who called for t he study , timing
of its r elease is uncertain. Meetings with GAO sta ff and COF indicate that
smaller foundations do not fill out 990 f orm comp l e tely, howe ver in many ·
cases the omi ssions are mi nor. For examp l e not us i ng n/a for question wh·ich
d oes not . apply.
-House Ways and Means Committee, Subcommittee on Oversight has announced
hearings for this session of Congress. CMF con tinues to work with COF to
monitor scope and timing.
- Communi ty Foundation legislativ e and re g u latory concerns a r e b ei n g addressed
by community foundation committee on legislation. They have engaged lega l
counsel and together with COF are working with the IRS for technical changes
i n the code. CMF community foundations have indicated no IRS problems.
-William W. Whi te repor ted Pres i denti al Task Force Committ ee on Impediments
has submitted impediments listing to Congressman Conable .
CM£ Legis lative Goal Sta t e me n t
- The Committee ha s reviewed each goal and recommends that accountability
statement be added as part of the goal statement .
-Extensive discus s i o n has t ak en place on the issue o f " excess business holdings ."
James M. Richmond has pr e pared a paper on the issue which the Conference Mandate
Committee has reviewe d in preparation for taking a more de f initive position on
the issue than is currently stated in the gegislative goa l statement . The issue
c ontinues to be studied .

�-John Riecker is preparing a paper on the "tipping" issue in order that
the committee might make a recommendation as to the problem.
Legislative Network
-Committee continues to promote and use network as necessary.
eminent contact with network will intensify.

With hearing,

-CMF is cooperating with COF's efforts to organize a national network. CMF
representatives for each Congressional district will be registered with the
COF network.
-State of Michigan network is yet to be developed in any detail, but will
be launched as soon as time permits.
Recommendations
- CMF stage a .1'-lichigan Congressional breakfast for Hichigan Congress:-en and
their aides on Wednesday, May 25, 1983 in Washingtion D.C.
The breakfast
will be followed by individual calls on Congressmen and Senators who may not
attend, as well as key staff aides of appropriate committees.
-CMF develop a briefing book describing and analyzing each issue on the
CMF Legislative Goal Statement.
-CMF poll Members on their current legislative concerns in collaboration with
Council on F o~~datio ns .
-CMF retain William H . Brodhead to review CMF legislative goal statemen t.
Such a review would encompa ss the following questions : What motivated
Congress to pass such legislation? What issues wigh t st il l remain today
which would have a bearing on proposed changes? The purpose of such a
review would be understand the intent of Congress in 1969 and the legislative
history of each issue. Such a review would assist CMF, its Members and
others to understand the essential questions we need to address.
Preliminary indications are that Mr. Brodhead would be interested in undertaking such a study.
I have addressed a letter to him requesting the
time and costs of such a study. The Charles Ste\vart Mott Foundation is
willing to make a contribution to CMF to fund such a review. Other members
may wish to also contribute.

approaches worked best and what factors were present in any negative reactions. Mr. Gertz
related his experiences in Monroe, where he knew all the foundation representatives, and
his subsequent membership recruitment efforts around the state.

personal approach to a known associate was the best approach .

announced that the Shiffman Foundation had indicated interest in joining and that she
would be meeting with them later in the day. She also reported on a meeting between Ranny
Riecker, Alan Schwartz and herself. Mr. Schwartz indicated that the Schwartz Family

Ranny Riecker
Future Trustee Meetings/Annual Conference

For planning purposes I propose the following schedule, however program
considerations may alter some timing particularly as to the next annual
conference. Members were informed that after two years the fall conference
format would be evaluated. Of course this can not take place until November,
1983 and • in the meantime we must reserve hotel space. The Board of Trustees
meetings have been scheduled accordingly.

CMF Trustees :

Please review the following statement which defines a working
relationship between regional associations and the Council on
Foundations .
All groups are being asked to discuss and accept
or reject the following proposal. Do tti e J ohnson is a member of
the COF Regional Association Committee and served as chair of the
Task Force compiling the report.

REGIONAL ASSOCIATIONS AND THE COUNCIL ON FOUNDATIONS
A Proposal to Strengthen the Relationship
BACKGROUND
Since 1969 the Council on Foundations and reaional associations of
qrantmakers have evolved an informal working relationship with certain
strengths and weaknesses. A more defined structure is needed to increase
the mutual benefits in the relationship.
The Council and regional associations share a basic purpose: impro~ing
communication among grantmakers to enhance the quality of their basic charitable activity. Methods and emphases may differ, both among regional associations and between regional groups and the Council; but common purpose
demands the most productive relationship possible.
While regional associations and the Council have similar objectives and
services, their constituencies do not overlap as much as one might expect.
There are 1,871 grantmaking member organizati·ons served either by staffed
regional associations or the Council on Foundations. Of that number, only
404 (22%) hold dual membership in both a regional association and the Council
on Foundations. This means that of the Council's 968 members, 564 are not
members of a regional association; and of the 1,307 regional association
members, 903 are not members of the Council. This fact has mixed implications
for the relationship between the Council and regional associations. On the
one hand, it means that cooperative efforts between the two groups bring
together a combined constituency which represents a significant portion of the
grantmaki ng community i_n thiS country. On the other hand, region a 1 associ at ions
and the Council on Foundations are independent organizations representing
differing constituencies.· The relationship will ultimately depend on voluntary
cooperation, with all of its tenuous characteristics.
THE PRESENT qELATIONSHIP
The Committee of Regional Associations is a special committee of the
Board of Directors of the Council on Foundations. As defined by Council
Policy on Committees (11/4/82) its membership is limited to regional associations of 9rantmaking organizations that:
"L have been formally organized out of a stated _interest in philanthropy;
2. lie within the geographic limits of the United States and serve
9rantmaking organizations within a designated geographic area, the
majority of which area is not served by another regional association;
3. have a membership which meets requirements defined by the organization; and
4. has staff, either full-time, parttime or volunteer.
Each regional association shall select from among its members and staff a
person to serve on the CofTJllittee as it representative."

�Informallv, the Chairman of the Council has qiven consideration to
participants in regional associations in selecting Council committee appointees. This practice has enhanced the capacity of the two groups to work
together in several areas of mutual interest. It should also be noted that
re~ional associations often have corresponding committees to those of the
Council.
Additionally, the President of the Council has assigned a staff liaison
to the Committee of Regional Associations. This appointment has been monumentally helpful to the work of the Committee and ~reatly enhances the
opportunities for cooperative efforts between the Council and regional
associations.
There is need for more carefully defined and tended procedures for
the Council and regional associations to inform each other of planned events,
activities and programs. Such advance information would produce far more
mutual benefit and complementary efforts than is presently realized and
would prevent needless duplication of effort and frustrating surprises.
The Committee of Regional Associations is the proper locus for improving the relationship between Council and regional groups. The Committee
accuratly reflects the dual nature of the relationship between the two
groups. On the one hand, the Committee is a committee of the Board of the
Council, informing and advising the Board on matters relating to re9ional
associations. On the other hand, the Committee is a somewhat independent
body of representatives from various heterogeneous regional associations,
choosin9 its own chair, setting its own agenda, deliberatin9 on matters of
~utual interest and serving a constituency beyond the Council's membership.
The following proposal recognizes that dual function and attempts to
strengthen the workin9 relationship with the Council in both contexts.
THE PROPOSAL
1.

It is proposed that the elected chair of the Committee of Regional
Associations become a voting member of the Board of Directors of
the Council on Foundations.

2.

It is proposed that the Chairman of the Council on Foundations and
the Chair of the Committee of Reqional Associations appoint a joint
ad hoc commi t tee:
a.

to explore ways to help our respective memberships to
grow; and

b.

to explore ways to encourage the establishment of new
regional associations in areas of the country where
potential and interest exist, with particular attention
to establishing acceptable division of responsibilities
in this area of mutual concern.

�-3-

3.

It is proposed ~hat the Chairman of the Council consult with the
Committee of Re~ional Associations annually for recommendations of
appropriate regional association members and/or staff who have
knowledge and experience in a particular committee's area of
responsibility.

4.

It is proposed that the Council President assign to staff liaison
to the Committee of Regional Associations the duty to inform regional
associations of all pertinent and appropriate events, activities and
programs of the Council at their earliest known stage of development,
including the itinerary of the Council staff when travelling on
Council business in geographic areas served by regional associations.
Regional association representatives serving on the committees of
the Council will inform staff liaison of pertinent and appropriate
planned events, activities and programs projected by the various
Council committees. In addition, regional association representatives on the Committee of Regional Associations will regularly inform
Council staff liaison of olanned regional association events, activities and programs.
·

5.

It is proposed that the Committee of Regional Associations and
Council staff jointly seek opportunities for shared projects to
achieve complementary services to philanthropy and seek to determine the publication needs in the field of philanthropy and to find
appropriate ways to meet those needs.

COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS
Legislative Statment
Background
In 1977 Council of Michigan Foundation (CMF) Members directed the Board of Trustees to
develop a public information program in support of Michigan foundation philanthropy and
to institute a plan to communicate with public policy makers. A Conference Mandate
Committee was established for this purpose.

CMF has worked with Member foundations, the Council on Foundations and other Area Association~
to bring about changes in ' the mandatory payout to a flat five percent and a reduction
in the excise .tax for non-operating private foundations.
The Conference Mandate Committee .has surveyed the CMF Members on their legislative interests
and priorities on a timely .basis. There continues to be a concensus that this is the
time for foundations to continue working to make themselves and their accomplishments
known to Congress and other appropriate government representatives.
In 1980 CMF launched
a "Developing Good Will Program" to assist in this information effort.
The CMF Board of Trustees approved the initial legislative statement on March 1, 1979.
A revised statement .was approved September 19, 1980 and the following statement was
approved January 27, 1982.
High Priority Legislative Issues
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 -i ndividual 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 foundation 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 foundation and receive
a deduction for the full value of the gift. The amount of the gift must be
reduced by 40% of the . amount of the appreciation. On the other hand, a gift
of an appreciated .capital asset to a public charity entitles a taxpayer to a
deduction for the . full amount given.

3.

Make the five year carry-forward on excess charitable contributions by individuals
and corporations applicable to such contributions to non-operating private foundations.

�Other Legislative Priorities
1.

Allow private foundations to charge their investment expenses to their required
payout amount for charitable purposes.

2.

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.

3.

Relax excess business holdings restrictions against private foundations.

4.

Review of regulations pertaining to community foundations with the Internal Revenue
Service.

Technical Revisions
1.

Establish a small grant rule, which would allow grants of under $15,000 to be
free of expenditure responsibility.

2.

Seek 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.

Place 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 .

6.

Pursue change of certain Internal Revenue 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· because of a private foundation grant.

CMF Activity
1.

Regularly communicate with elected . officials on federal, state and local level
about f oundation activities and concerns.

2.

Encourage member foundations to report grants and activity to government officials.

3.

Establish mechan isms to assist Member foundations to report their grants.

4.

Continue discussions with Michigan Attorney General's Office regarding community
and private foundation concerns.

Re:

Board of Tr us t ees

Dorothy A . Johnson
Discussion Document - Comparison of CMF Legislative Statement and
Brodhead Study/Recommendations

The following information has been prepared at the request of William s . White, Chairman, Government Relations Committe e for review at the May 10. 1983 Board of Trustees
Meeting.
It is based on the CMF Legislative Statement approved by the Board of Trustees
January 27, 1982.
The memo is structured as to give the Trustees a capsule digest of
portions of the Brodhead study and other relevant information . The Conable Bill refers
to legislation to be submitted by Congressman Barber B. Conable, Jr. relating to private
foundations .
This legislation has been drafted by Thomas A. Troyer, Counsel, for the
Council on Foundations.
The Board will be asked to confirm or change the CMF legislative priorities.
I submit
the following recommendations considering Members' responses to legislative questionnaires ,
the Brodhead study and considerations of the Legislative Relations Committee.
High Priority Legislative Issues
1.

Change the 20% limitation on gifts to a non- operating private foundation to 50%.

2.

Increase the deduction allowed a taxpayer to a private foundation on certain capital
gain property.

3.

Make the five year carry- forward on excess charitable contributions by individuals
and corporations applicable to such contributions to non-operating private
foundations.

Brodhead:
"If foundations are to preserve and improve their ability to meet the needs
of society, they must seek equal treatment.
Rectifying the inequities in the tax treatment of gifts to foundations will be difficult.
If foundations are to achieve a change
in the law in this area, i t will require a strong campaign to educate Congress on the
importance of the work that foundations do and an effort to show Congress that discriminatory tax treatment of gifts to foundations is unfair, is no longer justified, and
reduces the ability of foundations to assist in solving America's problems."
Conable Bill:
Recommendation:

Yes
No Change

Other Legislative Priorities
l.

Allow private foundations to charge their investment expenses to their required
payout amount for charitable purposes.

�-2-

Brodhead:
"In 1981, when Congress reduced the required payout level to a maximum
of 5% of asset value, this change was part of President Reagan's proposed tax reduction
bill --- a large, complex and controversial piece of l egis lation.
Unquestionably, many
in Congress were either unaware of the payout provision, did not focus their attention
on it, or considered i t inconsequential in light of the other provisions of the bill.
If the payout issue had come before the Congress as a separate proposition, it is not
altogether certain that i t would have been enacted into law .
Indeed , there are those
in Congress and on Congressional staffs who think that the payout requirement should be
increased.
For these reasons, it would seem prudent not to seek any further liberalization
of this rule, but rather to prepare to defend the present 5% requirement from attack."
Conable Bill:

No

Recommendation:
time.

2.

Continue to carry on legislative statement , but do not push at this

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.

Brodhead:
"Exemption of capital gains from the excise tax would, of course, lower the
revenue realized from the tax. Any kind of reduction of the tax will be difficu1t to
achieve until the funding problems of the government as a whole and of the Internal
Revenue Service, in particular , appear closer to a solution ."
Conable Bill:

No

Recommendation :
time.

3.

Continue to carry on legislative statement, but do not push at this

Relax excess business holdings restrictions against private foundations.

Brodhead:
"It seems highly unlikely that Congress will repeal or substantially alter
the excess business holdings rules. These provisions are seen by many as being absolutely
necessary to carry out two underlying principles of the 1969 law:
to achieve tax
benefits associated with donating property, you must sever yourself completely from its
control, and secondly, foundations ought not be used as devices for maintaining control
of large blocks of corporate stock.
To retreat on these principles would be perceived
by many as "gutting" the 1969 Act . . An effort to repeal or substantially relax these
provisions is likely to be long, controversial and unsuccessful."
Conable Bill:

No

Other Information:

The Council on Foundation's position -

"That in the testimony before the Oversight Subcommittee, COF report that, while some
foundations have sought special relief from the excess business holdings rules, the Council
does not recommend repeal of these restrictions. However, where unintended negative
results of these rules can be demonstrated, the Subcommittee should make careful review
to see if revisions may be called for.
The COF acknowledge that the 5-year divestiture
requirement for business holdings acquired by gift or bequest after 1969 places a receiving
foundation at a substantial disadvantage in negotiating with prospective purchasers. Faced
with such a short deadline for disposing of excess holdings, a potential donor may simply
decide against making a gift of stock to a foundation."

I

�-3-

Legislation excluding seven foundations from the excess business holding provision has
been introduced in Congress.
(No foundations from Michigan)
Two CMF Members are very concerned about the excess business holding provision as it impacts on the birth of foundations as well as .how it impacts or could impact on their
foundations.
(Kellogg and Frey)
Other Members have expressed concern that new foundations
are not being created and if excess business holding regulations are restricting growth
that a change in the law be made . Other Members are philosophically opposed to excess
business holdings as outlined in Brodhead ' s study.
Recommendation :
1.

CMF go on record in support of creating new foundations and that CMF
encourages the further study by the Council on Foundations of the reasons
and laws inhibiting the creation and growth of foundations.
Such an
examination would consider how to meet increasing charitable needs, the
effect of any legislative or regulatory changes on existing foundations
and public policy implications and concerns.
In considering the issue CMF examine alternative provisions of the law
and the ramifications of such proposals which would allow for the creating
of new private foundations . One such alternative among others that might ·
be suggested in such an examination would be that excess business holdings
requirements would not apply if the foundation were to meet a specified
criteria to protect the public interest .

4.

2.

CMF support seeking legislation giving the Internal Revenue Service
authority to grant, upon showing of necessity, an extension of the
divestiture period.

3.

CMF support the right of foundations seeking relief to present their case
directly to Congress until full examination of other alternatives has
taken place.

Review of regulations pertaining to community foundations with the Internal Revenue
Service .

Brodhead:
"The case for relief from the 10% support test is solid. Private foundations
should strongly support the effort by community foundations to gain this relief . "
Conable Bill: No . Community foundations nationally were not of the same opinion to
include proposed legislation seeking relief at this time.
Recommenda tion:
foundations.

CMF support relaxation of the public support test for community

Technical Revisions
1.

Establish a small grant rule, which would allow grants of under $15,000 to be
free of expenditure responsibility.

Brodhead :
"Congress and the Administration have repeatedly shown themselves willing to
relieve taxpayers of unnecessary or unwise paperwork requirements.
It is likely that
a de minimis rule, if the foundation community makes a strong case for it, can be obtained.
It would appear to be worthwhile to press for this change.
Conable Bill:
Recommendation :

Yes .

Minimum at $25,000.

No change

�-42.

Seek relief from the first level penalty tax for unwillful or inadve rtent
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.

Brodhead:
"Congress would be very likely to grant such relief, if presented with a
well considered, well-drafted proposal."
Conable Bill:

Yes

Recommendation:
3.

No change

Place 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.

Brodhead: "At a minimum, Section 4946 should be amended to provide that a substantial
contributor's lineal descendant, other than children and grandchildren, not be treated
as disqualified persons.
This change would be very unlikely to lead to abuse, since it
is very rare that remote descendants of foundation contributors are involved in the management or operation of that same foundation.
If they are so involved, they can be disqualified by virtue of that fact. The foundation community should press for this change.
Congress is likely to be disposed to grant relief."
Conable Bill:

Yes

Recommendation:
4.

No change

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 pro cedures to issues which require advance IRS action.

Brodhead: "There is no doubt that Congress would be sympathetic to allowing foundations
to have the opportunity to seek additional court review of IRS determinations. There
is a strong belief in Congress that checks on IRS power are needed in the public interest.
It is likely however, that the Treasury Department and the judges of the Tax Court will
strongly oppose this change. They will contend, and perhaps rightly, that more litigatio n
will require more time, more expense, more manpower and more delay of existing cases.
Congress may well be persuaded by these arguments, unless foundations can show that the
unfairness of the existing rules is so great that change is justified in spite of the
difficulties. Foundations can point out that if this change causes additional expense
to the government, these costs can be defrayed out of the exces s revenue which the
government realizes from the 2% excise tax."
Conable Bill:
Recommendation:
S.

No
No change

Require one penalty tax at the time of the infrac ti o n, r ather chan incr ease t he
tax with each year.

�-5-

Brodhead:
"Many people feel that this rule is too harsh.
However, individual
taxpayers can be audited up to 7 years after a return is filed.
If an error is
found, the taxpayer is required to pay the tax plus a late penalty and interest.
If the taxpayer has repeated the error in subsequent years, the same penalty is
imposed.
It is doubtful that an easier rule for foundations than for individuals
could be justified to Congress."
Conable Bill:
Recommendation:
this time.
6.

No
Continue to carry on legislative statement, but do not push at

Pursue change of certain Internal Revenue Service regulations which pose hardships
on public charities and jeopardize their fund-raising potentials. Of particular
concern at the tipping regulations whereby a public charity may lose its public
charity status because of a private foundation grant.

Brodhead:
"If the regulations were amended to provide that "good faith" reliance on an
IRS determination was sufficient, the public interest would be protected. This change
is worthwhile pursuing and should stand a good change of being adopted.
Conable Bill:
Recommendation:

Yes
No change

Other Recommendations:
1.

CMF supports public reporting for foundations, beyond those required by law,
and is prepared to provide technical assistance for those foundations seeking
to print an annual report or guidelines and to distribute the information or
other such information efforts as may be desired by a foundation.

Brodhead:
"It is possible that Congress could impose more comprehensive reporting
requirements on foundations.
Such requirements may well be stricter than necessary,
inflexible and expensive to comply with.
In view of this possibility, and because
there are legitimate problems here, it would make sense for the foundation community
to enhance its efforts at self-policing.
Some of Bothwell's language is strident
and some of his suggestions are perhaps impractical, but it is clearly good principle
and sound policy to move some distance in the direction he suggests. Many foundations,
of course, have an exemplary record in this regard.
It is up to those foundations
and to the organized foundation community to prod the laggards along."
2.

CMF believes that the payout rate should be maintained at 5% so as not to
diminish the real value of a foundation's corpus and grantmaking capability.

Allow private foundations to charge their investment expenses to their required
payout amount for charitable purposes.
Exclude from the formula used to compute the excise tax on private foundation net
investment income any capital gain realized in the fiscal yea in question.
CMF go on record in support of crea ting new foundations an that CMF encourages
the further study by the Council on Foundations of the reasons and laws inhibiting
the creation and growth of foundations . Such an examination would consjder how to
meet increasing charitable needs, the effect of any legislative or regulatory
changes on existing foundations and public policy implications and concerns.
In considering the issue CMF examine alternative provisions of the law and the
ramifications of such proposals which would allow for the creation of new private
foundations . One such alternative among others that might be suggested in such
an examination would be that excess business holdings requirements would not
apply if the fondation were to meet a specified criteria to protect the public
interest .
CMF support seeking legislation giving the IRS authority to grant, upon showing
of necessity , an extension of the d i vestiture period.

Ms. Margaret Ann Riecker, Chair
Council of Michigan Foundations
18 North Fifth Street
Grand Haven, Michigan 48417
Dear Ranny:
This is to advise that due to a change in assignment and
attendant responsibilities at General Motors effective May 2,
1983, I regretfully must tender my resignation from the Council
of Michigan Foundations. Accordingly, in addition I must decline
your invitation to serve as Chairman of the recently established
Audit Committee of the Board of Trustees.
From my perspective, the brief association and
involvement with the Council has been both rewarding and
productive, and I shall always be grateful for the privilege of
having met and worked with such a fine group of professionals.
For your information and future ref.erence, replacing me
as Director, Corporate Contributions and Special Projects, and as
Manager, General Motors Foundation, is Mr. Mark E. Mathews.
Please extend my best regards to the group and best
wishes for continued success and effectiveness of the Council.
Sincerely,

/.__

Mr. Herbert elaborated upon Mr. Taylor's model of a large biennial conference with
a smaller one day meeting on the off year.

Trustees from foundations with assets between $1 Million and $25 Million spoke about
the need for association with representatives from the large foundations who share
fresh ideas. Bill Allen and others spoke about how much the mid size foundations
appreciate the guidance of the large foundations, something they would not request
on an individual basis, but because of their association with CMF and the annual
conference, they have come to rely upon on an annual basis.
Other comments related to the value to trustees of small foundations who found the
annual conference an opportunity to focus their thinking about priorities. Bob Miller
noted that the small foundations needed the big foundations particularly at this time
of economic turmoil in the state.
Ray Loeschner indicated that the Mott Foundation
had found the annual conference valuable as an opportunity to associate with those
staff members from the large foundations who did not have other opportunities to exchange
ideas. He also noted that Mott program officers used the annual conference as an
opportunity to meet local grantmakers who they often contacted later to assist with
local grant review.
Upon motion duly made, supported and unanimously carried the present confere nce
format was endorsed and the Chair and Executive Director will convey to Mr. Taylor
CMF's appreciation for his concern and suggestion.

BOARD OF TRUSTEES

Ranny Riecker
Amendment to Bylaws - Board of Trustees Annual Meeting

In order to space the three Board of Trustees meetings reasonably apart,
it is wise to have the Annual Board of Trustees meeting in June, particularly
if we continue with a fall conference, which appears to be a wise idea . At
the Annual Board of Trustees meeting officers will be elected. The budget
process is being moved to the last board meeting before the end of the fiscal
year . In 1984 this will be March 7,8, 1984 .
RESOLVED , that Article VII, Section 2 , of the Bylaws be ammended
to read as follows :
"The fiscal year of the corporation shall be April 1 through March 31 ,
and the Annual Meeting of the Board for the election or appointment of
officers and the transaction of any other business shall be held during
the month of April,

Note:

RR/jlf

¢'1 May or June each year . "

BOARD OF TRUSTEES

Thomas W. Herbert
Amended Budget 1983-84

At the Annual Board of Trustees meeting May 10, 1983 the CMF 1983-84 Budget ,
General and Special Purpose, was adopted. Also at that meeting a special
consultative arrangement was authorized but not budgeted as the cost of the
service was not known . Consequently the special consultative income $27,225.00
appears under Non-Budgeted Income in the financial statement (9/30/83). It
would be good financial management to now approve an ame nded budget recognizing
this consultative service .

Recommendation :

Board of Trustees approve the following amended budget .

Associations to bring about changes in the mand atory payout to a fl at five percent
and a reduction in the excise tax for non-operating private foundations The Government Relations Committee has surveyed the CMF Members on their legislative
interests and priorities on a timely basisThere continues to be a concensus that

ACTIVITIES PROGRESS REPORT

The Michigan Scene
Two issues have been published since the beginning of the new fiscal year
(April 1). Edie Sillars, Editor, reports the fall edition will feature
the Eleventh Annual Conference program sessions .
Plans are underway for a complete review of TMS in anticipation of budget
realities.
(The Charles Stewart Matt Foundation Information grants covering
three years comes to an end March 31, 1984). The Committee has asked the
Council on Foundations Communications Network Service for a technical review
of size, cost, paper, etc. The Committee with the leadership of Judy Samelson
and Bob Hencey will be conducting a readership review. The Committee will
submit a recommendation to the Board of Trustees at the next meeting which
will be incorporated in the budget .

Thursday, October 27, 1983 in Traverse City and will be followed by five

the Michigan League for Human Services several CMF Members are speaking.
See attached brochure for details.
Michigan Foundation Directory
The Directory was distributed in May.
Sales are ahead of previous editions,
1300 copies to date. Missed deadlines and improper instructions have led
the Committee to recommend that CMF assume responsibility for the production
of the next edition , as well as the research . The Michigan League for
Human Services would continue to be responsible for promotion and distribution.
Preliminary conversations have been held with MLHS about this idea and
consequent change in financial arrangements.

New York Times to cover Michigan foundation and corporate grantmaking - economic
development . On Oct. 19 she indicated "great interest."

well as a listing of those foundations printing guidelines, statement of
purpose and/or annual report. Follow up with each foundation is planned
as time of the CMF staff and Committee permits.
