TABLED

Whereas in Washington State, like the rest of the nation, law

enforcement use of deadly force has a disproportionate impact

on marginalized communities, particularly persons of color,

LGBTQ persons with disabilities, youth, immigrants, with

disproportionate impact on Native Americans and the Black

community, and with data showing that one-quarter of uses of

deadly force involve a person with mental health issues;

Whereas the duty to preserve life and protect the community

also includes the underlying respect for humanity, and a duty

to render first aid at the scene;

Whereas the law in Washington State on the use of deadly

force by law enforcement (RCW 9A.16.040) has been called

the most "egregious" in the nation due to a de facto immunity

for unjustified use of force;

Whereas the public needs confidence in the review of use of

deadly force, particularly when it results in death or serious

injury, and has called for independent investigations to

provide for a credible outcome;

Whereas Initiative 940, which is an initiative to the

Legislature, calls for violence de-escalation, mental health,

and first aid training, requires that first aid be rendered,

removes the de facto immunity and replaces it with an

objective and subjective good faith test, both of which must

be met, requires a completely independent investigation, and

includes diverse community members at the table to develop

policies;

Therefore be it resolved that we endorse Initiative 940, also

known as De-Escalate Washington; and

Therefore be it finally resolved, that we call for wide-spread

support through signature gathering to assure that Initiative

940 qualifies for the ballot, encourage coming to the table

with law enforcement at all levels in this, and will work for

the passage of Initiative 940 during the 2018 legislative

session.

To tell a complex story and gather pertinent information and

reduce it to a compelling clean video, info graphics, copies

and/or promotional material. Whereas, a public relations

campaign for the Arrow Lakes (Sinixt,

Lakes)

people for the use of collegiate education, public awareness

and historical reference to people, places and events related to

the Arrow Lakes band. Whereas it is the recommendation to

utilize the amount of $150,000.00 for documentary

professional fees, equipment, promotional items and travel.

Chair or designee to sign all relevant documents.

To approve the new Medical and Dental rates for FY2018

beginning February 1, 2018 which include a 10% increase

and contributing 50% of the employee dependents.

$326,601.68 from the DCS Claim will be used to offset all of

Whereas, Management & Budget Committee approved

resolution 2007-700 the Charter and Articles of Incorporation

and By Laws for Colville Tribal Credit Corporation

Whereas, Article XI Board of Directors Section B (ii)

concerning one of the five Corporate Directors which states

one Director shall be: "The Comptroller (or acting if a

permanent Comptroller is not in existence) of the Tribe"; and

Whereas, The Comptroller job has been reclassified to Chief

Financial Officer; and

Whereas, Management & Budget finds it necessary to change

the job title; now

Therefore, be it resolved, that the Colville Business Council

hereby approves an amendment to the Charter and Articles of

Incorporation by changing Article XI Board of Directors

Section B (ii) to:

"The Chief Financial Officer of the Tribes or similar position

if no Chief Financial Officer or designee from the Tribal
