This page will replace the content on the Oneida Nation | BC Resolutions page. It is not intended to be published, but instead simulate that will be posted over the Resolutions page.
Business Committee resolutions are used to document the decisions officially adopted by the elected officials. The resolution differs from other actions taken in a Business Committee meeting by including the authority of the Committee or Council to make the decision and provides the background information for why the decision was made. All resolutions proposed for adoption by the Oneida Business Committee shall be accompanied by a Statement of Effect and processed through the Legislative Reference Office. A Statement of Effect contains legal and policy analysis which explains the effect adopting a resolution has for the Nation. Exceptions for resolutions that do not require a Statement of Effect.
- Resolution for grant applications
- Self-governance contract or compact resolutions
- Resolutions for the purchase of land into trust status
- Nominations of individuals to serve on a particular entity
- Resolution in support of a cause or individual
- Resolution regarding the pardoning or forgiveness of any member of the nation
- Resolution which approve a contract or agreement accompanied by a legal review
Individuals and organizational entities are encouraged to utilize the BC Resolution template when drafting resolutions for Business Committee consideration. To request a Statement of Effect, visit the Legislative Operating Committee page. If the information you are looking for has an error, please contact Secretary@oneidanation.org or 920-869-4364.
