Fine! Thick, neatly-bound volumes of objectives and related dollar amounts were delivered to members of the Tribal Council August 15 — right on schedule. Formal review of the 1979 pro posed budget for the Confeder- ated Tribes is expected to begin August 28. General manager Ken Smith told the Council that he and his staff had worked “fairly hard” on the budget this year, noting that it was especially “well laid out.” He gave credit to Cece Smith and Jim Sizemore for their organizational efforts. B The proposed budget, which ■ branch managers and depart- Sment heads will be expected to J justify to Council, would increase I expenditures by 28 per cent, add 138.5 new positions, and introduce m at least six new programs.

This new method should prevent the “‘tail wagging the dog” syn drome, explained the manager’s office. Department heads still ori ginated their own budgets, with branch managers reviewing and assembling them. The branch budgets were then reviewed de partment by department by a management team, in two weeks of full days and long nights.
