CONFEDERATED TRIBES OF GRAND RONDE OFFICIAL BALLOT COUNCIL GENERAL ELECTION Grand Ronde September 12, 2015 SAMPLE KENNEDY SAMPLE On July 28, 2015, Tribal Council passed an Authorization to Proceed, authorizing a feasibility study for the proposed community swimming/ fitness pool in Grand Ronde. The feasibility study is not an approval to build the project in Grand Ronde, but rather an approval to research and explore the possibility of building a swimming pool. The feasibility study will gather information including, but not limited to, conceptual designs including size, required facilities, the market and service area, estimates for site preparation work and development and construction costs, funding options and projected operational costs. Once the feasibility study has been completed, the General Manager’s Office and staff will present the results of the feasibility study to Tribal Council for their review so they can then in turn solicit feedback from Tribal members. The decision to complete the feasibility study responds to the input and opinions expressed at the June 3 Community Input meeting, which included that Tribal members needed more information about cost and impacts to the Tribal budget. If you have any questions regarding the feasibility study and timelines, please contact Rick George, the Planning Department manager, at 503-879-2112. n TO VOTE: Complete the arrows pointing to the candidates of your choice SAMPLE Feasibility study for swimming pool 01 SAMPLE Yesteryears is a look back at Tribal history in five-year in- crements through the pages of Smoke Signals.
