Tribal
Business Council Votes to have the Segments fund
Donations and Grants per the JTAC Dollars disseminated
to each Segment Community Board.
Previously
the Tribal Business Council passed Resolutions
#00-208-DSB, which approved the disbursement
of $125,000 to each of the six segments and #01-04-MWJR
which also approved the disbursement of $75,000
to each of the six segments; which brings a total
funding of $200,000 for each respective segment.
Therefore the Tribal Business Council approved
Resolution #01-50-MWJR ;
"The Districts with their $200,000 allocated to
them shall be responsible for their Annual Dances,
Vehicle replacements and sponsorship of youth
and community related activities; and"
"That each District will set a cap for each of
these activities"
"..and before funds will be disbursed, an approved
budget and Resolutions shall be approved by the
Tribal Business Council."
Copies
of such resolution shall be distributed to each
of the six Segment Community Boards, for more
information on the budgeting process contact Treasurer
Gillette at 627-4781.
National Indian Gaming Association Dues to be
paid and the announcement of Councilman Mark Fox
to run for National Chairman.
The Tribal
Business Council voted to approve the yearly dues
of $3,500 to the NIGA and support the campaign
of Mark Fox, Parshall Representative to the post
of Chairman of NIGA organization, as the present
Chairman Rick Hill will not be seeking another
term as Chair. Mr. Fox is currently the
Treasurer of the NIGA organization and he will
be seeking the post for the first time. This is
a very important post, in order to insure the
future of Gaming in Indian Country, I believe
Mr. Fox is worthy of the Task. "Good Luck Mark."
