General Manager's Report
In addition to the new staff and programs mentioned in last months newsletter, we
will be developing 2 new programs in the next fiscal year.
Early this fall we will be advertising a position opening for the newsletter and
hunting & fishing position. The primary responsibilities of this position will be
to coordinate the publication of the monthly tribal newsletter and to develop the
tribal hunting and fishing program.
Also this fall, the Tribal Council will begin the development of the Tribal Court
system. Since there has been considerable criticism of tribal courts in the midwest,
Council has elected to pursue tribal court development cautiously. However, the
tribal court will be developed in fy 1987.
At the October General Council meeting, program directors will present their annual
work plans which will outline the activities each program will be involved with during
the next fiscal year. This should be an informative meeting, and I encourage you
to try to attend.
