LEGAL - THE MISSION OF THE ELFIN FOREST HARMONY GROVE TOWN COUNCIL (EFHGTC) IS TO MAINTAIN THE QUALITY OF RURAL COMMUNITY LIVING . . . AND TO PRESERVE THE UNIQUENESS AND CHARACTER OF OUR AREA. IN 2018 THE EFHGTC FOUND IT NECESSARY TO FILE TWO CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT SUITS TO PREVENT TWO HOUSING DEVELOPMENTS FROM BEING BUILT IN OUR COMMUNITY WHICH WOULD VIOLATE OUR COMMUNITY PLAN AND CURRENT ZONING AND WOULD ENDANGER THE LIVES OF OUR RESIDENTS BY NOT PROVIDING A SECONDARY EXIT IN THE CASE OF A FIRE IN VIOLATION OF THE CALIFORNIA FIRE CODE. TH E TOWN COUNCIL RAISED THE FUNDS TO PAY ATTORNEY FEES FROM GENEROUS CONTRIBUTIONS FROM WITHIN AND OUTSIDE OUR COMMUNITY. IN 2020 AN APPEALS COURT UPHELD THAT VERDICT. THIS WIN BENEFITED THE SEVERAL THOUSAND PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN THE COMMUNITY AND THE TENS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WHO COME TO OUR COMMUNITY EACH YEAR TO WALK AND RIDE HORSES ON OUR COMMUNITY TRAILS. EXPENSE AMOUNT REPORTED HERE EXCLUDES PRIOR YEAR LEGAL FEES THAT WERE REFUNDED.
Expenses $7,370

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

As filed, from the IRS e-Postcard file of 26 October 2026. The IRS publishes only each organization's most recent postcard, so earlier years are not shown. A 990-N carries no financial detail. The postcard also gives the principal officer's address, which is not shown here.
Grants made
No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.
Grants received
No itemized grant names this organization as a recipient. Only grants over $5,000 are itemized, and only by filers of the full Form 990.
Related organizations
From Schedule R Part II, where a filer lists the tax-exempt organizations it is related to by control. It does not record shared board members or money.

Other IRS files
Auto-Revocation List
Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.
Publication 78
Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.
These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
