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.
For a copy of the proposed Ordinance amendments please contact the Tribal
Attorney's office at (503) 879-2265. Tribal Council invites comment on the
proposed amendments. Please send your comments to the Tribal Attorney's
Office, 9615 Grand Ronde Rd., Grand Ronde, OR 97347. Comments must be
received by September 30, 1999.
