Wis. Admin. Code Department of Administration § Adm 82.95 - Certification criteria for a corporation owned by a nonprofit organization

(1) The department may certify a corporation owned by a nonprofit organization if the department determines that the nonprofit organization is controlled and managed by disabled veterans or their duly authorized representatives. Factors that the department may consider in reaching this determination include the following:

(a) At least 51 percent of the members who may elect the board of directors or trustees and who are entitled to vote on a dissolution of the nonprofit organization are disabled veterans.

(b) At least 51 percent of the board of directors or trustees of the nonprofit organization are disabled veterans.

(c) The minutes of the organization's meetings document the active control and participation of the disabled-veteran members of the board in such areas as setting and monitoring financial policy, personnel policy and program policy.

(d) The nonprofit organization is independent of control or substantial influence by a nonprofit or for-profit organization that is not owned by a disabled veteran. The department shall refutably presume that the nonprofit disabled veteran-owned organization is dependent on an organization which is not owned by a disabled veteran if the disabled veteran-owned organization shares office space, staff, equipment, or other resources, with a for-profit or nonprofit organization that is not owned by a disabled veteran or if the disabled veteran-owned organization receives a majority of its funding from a single organization that is not owned by a disabled veteran.

(2) The applicant and department shall follow the certification procedures described in s. Adm 82.50.
