Smoke Signals OPEN FOR COMMENT Gaming Ordinance Amendments The Tribal Council in consultation with the Tribal Attorney's Office has proposed several amendments to the Gaming Ordinance. The first reading of the amendments to the Tribal Court Ordinance was presented at the Au gust 4, 1999 Tribal Council meeting. The purpose of the amendments is to make technical corrections to various provisions of the Ordinance and to make necessary substantive changes to the Ordinance to update the Ordinance in light of current Commission and Spirit Mountain Gaming, Inc. practices. The numerous substantive changes include, but are not limited to, expanding the right of appeal to Tribal Court, providing definitions for High and Low Security employees, amending edu cational andor experience requirements of Commissioners, removing detailed provisions governing use of management contracts, and removing Class I gaming from regulation by Commission. The Tribal Council believes amend ment of this Ordinance will assist the Tribe in continuing to provide a fair and effective gaming regulatory system.
