The Foundation assures its grant funds are used for their intended purpose primarily through making payments only after the grant requirements have been accomplished and documented. The preponderance of grants covers the installation of clean energy technologies or the acquisition of land that lend themselves to this monitoring approach. Where this approach does not apply, performance and related payments are tied to reaching a specific performance benchmark, as noted in the grant agreement, and providing documentation of having attained this benchmark and the use of grant funds to date. In addition, a final report is required from grantees reporting on the outcomes of the project against those anticipated and a detailed report on the use of Foundation funds in support of those outcomes.

The process for reviewing compensation for the organization's other officers is completed on an annual basis. Form 990, Part VI, Line 6 Classes of members or stockholders The corporation shall have six classes of members, designated Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E, and Class F. Class A members shall consist of one member, the incumbent Governor of the State of Illinois. Class B members shall consist of one member, the incumbent President of the Illinois Senate. Class C members shall consist of one member, the incumbent Minority Leader of the Illinois Senate. Class D members shall consist of one member, the incumbent Speaker of the Illinois House of Representatives.

Form 990, Part VI, Line 7a Members or stockholders electing members of governing body Each member is entitled to appoint one trustee to sit on the board of directors. Form 990, Part VI, Line 8b Documentation of meetings held by committees of governing body The foundation did not have any committees with the authority to act on behalf of the governing body. Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b Review of form 990 by governing body The foundation's independent paid tax preparers review the prepared form 990 with the Foundation staff. Subsequent to this review, the Chair of the Foundation's Audit Committee and another Board member review the Form 990. They discuss and resolve any questions or clarifications with Foundation staff. The foundation staff works with its tax preparers to resolve any questions or issues the Audit Committee Chair and the other Board members discover before filing the return. Copies of the final form 990 are distributed to all members of the Foundation's governing body prior to filing with the IRS. Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c Conflict of interest policy The foundation's conflict of interest policy covers all Trustees, Officers, members of a Committee and all employees. Annually, conflict of interest questionnaires are completed by the foundation's interested persons and reviewed by the Executive Director. Any interested person of the Foundation who has a conflict of interest, described in the Foundation's Conflict-of-Interest Policy, must fully disclose such interest to the Foundation's Board of Trustees or appropriate Committee before any discussion or negotiation of such transaction or arrangement. Any person covered by this policy may seek a determination by the Board of Trustees as to whether his or her disclosure shows that a conflict of interest exists or can reasonably be construed to exist. A majority vote of the Trustees present at a Board meeting at which a quorum is present must then determine whether an interest exists or can reasonably be construed to exist after deliberation without the presence of the person requesting the determination. Any Interested person of the Foundation who has either disclosed and declared a conflict of interest, or been determined to have a conflict of interest (or reasonably construed to have an interest) by the Board of Trustees, shall not be present for any discussion or deliberation or vote on such transaction or arrangement; and shall not otherwise use his or her personal influence in connection with such matter.
