Resolution of Tribal Council
The COO
Whereas for the more than 30
years, the Secretary-Treasurer/
CEO has been both the lead man-
ager for Tribal governmental op-
erations and an officer of the
Tribal Council, carrying out duties
outlined in the Tribes’ Constitution
and By-Laws; and,
Whereas over that time Tribal
Government has grown in size and
scope, it has become increasingly
difficult for a single manager to
oversee the day to day operations
and demand more accountability
from the Tribes’ governmental ser-
vice department as well as fulfill
Corporate Charter, Constitutional
and policy development and imple-
mentation duties, including major
strategic issues and general legal/
fiscal responsibilities; and,
Whereas in 1993, The Secre-
tary-Treasurer of the Tribal Coun-
cil recommended to the Tribal
Council a Reorganization plan that
established a new position of Chief
Operation Officer of the Confed-
erated Tribes of Warm Springs that
would manage and oversee the day
to day delivery of governmental
services and programs as autho-
rized by the Tribal Council; and,
Whereas the Tribal Council
approved this new position on
June 1, 2010; and,
Whereas on May 8, 1995, the
‘Tribal Council incorporated this
new position in a revised Manage-
ment Plan by Resolution No.
9070, (now subject to review- and
update) wherein the position
Chief Operations Officer was del-
egated the overall authority and
responsibility to direct and man-
age the day-to-day governmental
departments and programs; now,
therefore,
Be it resolved by the Twenty-
Seventh Tribal Council of the
Confederated Tribes of Warm
Springs Reservation of Oregon,
pursuant to Article IV, Section Ii
and Article V, Section 1(s), Article
III of the Tribal Constitution and
By-Laws and the Management
Plan as approved by Resolution
No. 10,811, that Alyssa Macy is

tion Officer of the Confederated
Tribes effective September 21st,
2016; and,
Be it further resolved that
Alyssa Macy may be retained with
“No break in service” for benefit
purposes; and,
Be it further resolved that, in
accordance with Article IX, Sec-
tion 4 of the Management Plan,
the Tribal Council shall complete
a review of a revised organiza-
tional structure and conduct a
compensation review of the
Tribal Council Officers’ position,
and until that review is completed,
the Chief Operations Officer shall
be paid at a rate equivalent to an
annual salary of $105,000. Reso-
lution no. 12,230.
Be it resolved by the Twenty-
Seventh Tribal Council of the Con-
