8) QCV joining Disaster Emergency Management
Discussion: John McCoy, Herman Williams, Stan Jones
Joining this group to develop a DEM plan. Funding is coming from
Snohomish County. Need to be prepared for major disasters. Back
in the 1830’s something large happened to Camano Head. We
need to prepare to evacute our children. Entire Villages have
been wiped out. Does TTT have a disaster plan? D.W. may have something
put together. The entire Tribe needs to be included. FEMA may
have set aside funds for Tribes to develop a DEM. Many departments
need to come together to discuss this, possibly a retreat which
will include the BOD. Make sure it is implemented. GM will check
with various departments.
9) Tribal wide Employment Agency
September 6, 2003, Directive No 10.
Discussion: John McCoy, Les Parks, Marie Zackuse, Herman Williams,
Steve Gobin
The Village Charter states that this will be done through QCV
General Manager. The Charter could be amended to state put all
the employment under one department. The Village must be managed
and operated by Tribal Members and must be on Trust Land. To avoid
issues with lawsuits, the Village Government must be managing
and influencing the Village. This needs to be discussed with the
Village legal staff.
Language could be stated that they would be contracting with an
outside agency to hire staff. Over the past year, the Village
seems to be diluting down into a TTT department instead of a City
Government. Council needs to support the Village Government. This
may need to have an MOU to accomplish it without doing an amendment
to the Village Charter.
Consider an MOU that would include any services the Village uses
with TTT.
