Dear friends, It has come to my attention that the land selling by Rural Land Foundation has become necessary to keep it solvent. The publicly available IRS tax filing for multiple years is given at the following link.. https://projects.propublica.org/nonprofits/organizations/46132391 There is stunning 40% overhead on executive compensation which is totally unacceptable for a nonprofit corporation. I am connected to many nonprofits in the area and lead one myself. I have written to the President of RLF to find alternate paths of reducing overhead than thinking of selling land. RLF is an old and valuable organization. It should actively engage itself in soliciting grants and public support and reduce overhead. It is a town institution. We should all pitch in to help RLF to rescue it from the dire unfortunate situation. The overhead executive compensation should be truncated immediately for solvency. I request the RLF Board to comment and take action. Best regards, Bijoy Misra
