For the record: Secretary Lisa Liggins stated, I'm abstaining for all of the alcohol beverage licensing
resolutions because I do not believe these resolutions address the gap that exists due to the municipal
licenses expiring in June of this year, meaning our licenses for 2022-2023 also expired in June based
on the verbiage in the resolve. However, I do want to thank the Licensing Department for addressing
another one of my concerns, that being that the resolutions themselves have been very stagnant year
over year, it was very hard to tell which licensing period they were referencing. So, they did make an
improvement there in identifying that this licensing period is for 2023-2024, and I do appreciate that.
Thank you.

REPORT: Business Committee Agenda Request
To:

Oneida Business Committee

From:

Lisa Rauschenbach, Comprehensive Housing Division Director

Date:

August 14, 2023

Subject:

Unbudgeted Position Requests – 4 Carpenters, 1 Maintenance
Supervisor

Request
The Comprehensive Housing Division is requesting support from the Oneida
Business Committee for approval of 5 unbudgeted position requests for the
following positions:
4 Carpenters
1 Maintenance Supervisor
Both position requests would fall under Tribal Contribution dollars and not
HUD funded positions. The 4 carpenter positions would service the 101
general rental units and also assist with the rehab of Residential Sales Units.
Justification
To give some history, in October of 2017, the then Housing Authority joined
with Land Management to combine residential services making the
Comprehensive Housing Division. As a result of this merger, the
Comprehensive Housing Division acquired 101 General Rental Units.
During the merger there was an MOU created that outlined a 5 year
transition period for providing funding of the repairs and maintenance of
those units. Unfortunately the transfer of those funds never occurred and the
general rental units were never addressed with the exception of emergency
work orders in which are called in by the tenant.

Page 1 of 3

Public Packet

44 of 407

Many of these units are in poor condition as they have not been serviced up
until last fiscal year when budget dollars were approved in December 2022.
The Comprehensive Housing Division has struggled to give these units the
needed attention due to lack of resources and staff and the current workload
that the division services.
Additionally when the merger occurred, there were 3 Maintenance positions
that serviced these 101 units at Land Management. There was also one
Resident Services Specialist that administratively serviced the units. The
merger concluded with one Resident Services Specialist and 1 Maintenance
Worker being transferred to the new Comprehensive Housing. (1
Maintenance Worker was sent to Plumbing and one retired.)
Prior to Merger
 3 Maintenance Staff addressed General Rentals needs
 1 Maintenance Supervisor
 1 Resident Services
After Merger
 0 Maintenance Staffing addressing General Rental needs
 1 Resident Services
*Emergency Work Orders called in by tenants have been consistently
addressed.
4 Carpenter Positions: The 4 carpenter positions requested would assist the
division with putting a much needed focus on the 101 residential rentals that
has been neglected for the pas There are also preliminary plans to increase
rental rates in the upcoming fiscal year to help address rental revenue that
would in turn assist in repairs and preventative maintenance.
1 Maintenance Supervisor Position: The Maintenance Supervisor position
that is being requested would oversee the work order crew and would be part
of reorganization efforts of the Mainteannce and Rehab department. As a
working supervisor this position would be focused on work orders which
would allow the Rehab Supervisor to be onsite to place more time and effort
into vacant units.

Additionally this change and the hiring of this position would not only allow
for rehab carpenters to do more work in the units but would result in savings
in such duties as lawn duties and preventative maintenance. These changes
would also allow for hiring more entry level maintenance staff. With proper
training, these positions would lead to future succession planning efforts for
the division.
Comprehensive Housing realizes the urgent need to address the housing
needs of the Nation. With careful planning an collaboration, it has been
identified that the hiring of these 5 positions would be the first step in
addressing those needs.

The Nation is required to develop, adopt, and manage an annual budget. [1 O.C. 121.5-1]. All
revenues and expenditures of the Nation shall be in accordance with the annual budget. Id. The
Nation’s annual budget is required to be a balanced budget, which does not propose to spend more
funds than are reasonably expected to become available to the Nation during that fiscal year. Id.
The Budget and Finances law provides for the process and procedures to be used for the
development and adoption of the Nation’s budget. [1 O.C. 121.5-4].
The Budget and Finances law requires that the Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”)
identify a maximum number of FTE employees to be employed by the Nation. [1 O.C. 121.9-1].
The Oneida Business Committee is then delegated the authority to approve this employment cap,
and any amendments thereto, through the adoption of a resolution. Id. The Oneida Business

The Treasurer, CFO, Executive Managers, and the Executive Human Resources Director then
utilize the Nation’s employment cap to develop a labor allocations list. [1 O.C. 121.9-2]. The labor
allocations list identifies the number of FTE employees each employment area of the Nation is
allocated. Id. The Oneida Business Committee is delegated the authority to adopt the labor
allocation list, and any amendments thereto, through the adoption of a resolution. Id. The Oneida
Business Committee is required to review the labor allocations list on an annual basis. Id. The total
number of FTE employees identified in the labor allocations list is not allowed to exceed the
Nation’s employment cap. [1 O.C. 121.9-2(a)]. The Treasurer, CFO, Executive Managers, and
Executive Human Resources Director were delegated the authority to develop a standard operating
procedure which identifies a process for the consideration of requests to revise the labor allocations
list. [1 O.C. 121.9-2(b)]. The Oneida Business Committee is responsible for approving this
standard operating procedure, and any amendments thereto, through the adoption of a resolution.
Id.
Any position which has not been specifically budgeted for and included in the labor allocation list
is prohibited. [1 O.C. 121.9-3]. Budgeted labor dollars and approved positions are not transferrable
in any form, except that the Oneida Business Committee may authorize an unbudgeted position
for a fund unit. [1 O.C. 121.9-3(a)]. The CFO is required to provide the Oneida Business
Committee a written fiscal analysis and any input on the potential unbudgeted position, and the
Oneida Business Committee is then delegated the authority to authorize the unbudgeted position
through the adoption of a resolution. Id.
The Oneida Business Committee adopted the Fiscal Year 2023 budget on December 28, 2022,
through the adoption of resolution BC-12-28-22-D, Adoption of Fiscal Year 2023 Budget. 1 The
Fiscal Year 2023 budget set the Nation’s employee cap at two thousand two hundred (2,200) full
time equivalent (FTE) employees.
The Oneida Business Committee adopted resolution BC-09-28-22-D, Adoption of Standard
Operating Procedure: Employment Cap and Labor Allocations Level – Budget and Finances Law,
Chapter 121, for the purpose of meeting the requirements of section 121.9-2(b) of the Budget and
Finances law that there be a standard operating procedure which identifies a process for the
consideration of requests to revise the labor allocations list.

The Budget and Finances law provides that in the event that the General Tribal Council does not adopt a budget by
September 30th, the Oneida Business Committee may adopt a continuing budget resolution until such time as a budget
is adopted. [1 O.C. 121.5-4(e)(1)]. The Oneida Business Committee took action to adopt a continuing budget
resolution through the adoption of resolution BC-09-14-22-D, Continuing to Operate Fiscal Year 2023, which allowed
organizational activities to continue until the final budget was presented for approval. Resolution BC-09-14-22-D
provided that the continuing budget resolution would remain in effect from October 1, 2022, until December 31, 2022,
or until the budget is adopted whichever is soonest. The Budget and Finances law then provides that if the General
Tribal Council is not able to adopt a budget within three (3) months of the adoption of the continuing budget resolution,
then the Oneida Business Committee shall proceed with the adoption of the Nation’s budget. [1 O.C. 121.5-4(e)(1)].
The Fiscal Year 2023 Budget was not able to be presented to the General Tribal Council for adoption prior to
September 30, 2022. The Oneida Business Committee then adopted a continuing resolution BC-09-14-22-D,
Continuing to Operate Fiscal Year 2023. The Fiscal Year 2023 Budget was not presented to the General Trial Council
for consideration prior to the expiration of resolution BC-09-14-22-D, so the Oneida Business Committee then adopted
the Fiscal Year 2023 Budget through resolution BC-12-28-22-D, Adoption of Fiscal Year 2023 Budget.

This resolution identifies that the organization, throughout the fiscal year, changes programming
and business activities which require the transfer, re-assignment, and development of new
positions, which should be addressed within the current financial boundaries in the adopted budget.
Where new positions and additional funding are needed, the Budget and Finances law sets forth
the requirement that these be approved by resolution as a tracking mechanism to allow the
Treasurer, CFO, and Oneida Business Committee to better manage the labor costs which make up
most of the expenses within the budget.
Through the adoption of this resolution the Oneida Business Committee approves the labor
allocations and/or budget amendment for the additional five (5) new positions for Business Unit #
4261007 – four (4) positions at job number 03356 (formally job number 028021) and one (1)
position at job number 03357 (formally job number 02810). The resolution identifies this position
would be funded through tribal contribution, and that the cost would be a total of thirty-seven
thousand six hundred and one dollars ($37,601) for all five (5) positions.
The resolution is not clear as to whether it is seeking the amendment of the Nation’s labor
allocations, an amendment of the Nation’s budget, or both. After the budget is adopted,
amendments of the budget are not permitted unless it is necessary to avoid a budget deficit. [1
O.C. 121.5-5]. If an amendment to the Nation’s budget is sought, the Treasurer and CFO are
required to identify when forecasted revenue and forecasted expenses are impacted in a manner
which creates a deficit for the current fiscal year. Id. The CFO is required to provide the Oneida
Business Committee a written fiscal analysis and any input on the potential budget amendment.
Id. This resolution does not provide whether the CFO has provided a fiscal analysis for any
potential budget amendment, and the resolution does not identify whether an amendment to the
budget for the addition of the five (5) noted positions would be necessary to avoid a budget deficit.
The Oneida Business Committee is then responsible for adopting an amendment to the budget
through resolution of the Nation. Id. The Oneida Business Committee is then required to present
notification of the budget amendment at the next available General Tribal Council meeting. Id.
An amendment to the Nation’s labor allocations is permitted if the Oneida Business Committee
approves the amendment through the adoption of a resolution. [1 O.C. 121.9-2]. An amendment
to the Nation’s labor allocations would not affect the overall number of FTE employees to be
employed by the Nation but would only change the number of FTE employees each employment
area of the Nation is allocated from the total number of FTE employees employed by the Nation.
Essentially, transferring a number of allocated FTE employees allocated to one area to a different
area.
Additionally, if the five (5) additional position identified in this resolution is unbudgeted then the
CFO is required to provide the Oneida Business Committee a written fiscal analysis and any input
on the potential unbudgeted position, so that the Oneida Business Committee can authorize the
unbudgeted position through the adoption of a resolution. [1 O.C. 121.9-3(a)]. This resolution
does not provide whether the CFO has provided the Oneida Business Committee a written fiscal
analysis and any input on the potential unbudgeted positions.

Conclusion
The impact of the adoption of this resolution is unknown without further clarification to determine
the intent of this resolution to ensure that it complies with the Nation’s Budget and Finances law:
 If the purpose of this resolution is to amend the Fiscal Year 2023 budget to provide for the
additional positions for Business Unit #4261007, then the amendment would only be
allowed if it is necessary to avoid a budget deficit as required by section 121.5-5 of the
Budget and Finances law. [1 O.C. 121.5-5]. This resolution does not provide whether the
CFO has provided a fiscal analysis for any potential budget amendment, and the resolution
does not identify whether an amendment to the budget for the addition of the five (5)
positions would be necessary to avoid a budget deficit. Any approval of an amendment to
the Nation’s budget is required to occur through the adoption of a resolution and must be
notified to the General Tribal Council at the next available General Tribal Council
meeting.
 If the purpose of this resolution is to amend the Nation’s labor allocations, which would
mean that the overall number of FTE employees would remain the same at two thousand
two hundred (2,200) employees but the number of FTE employees delegated to Business
Unit #42610071 would be amended and increased by five (5), then this action would
comply with section 121.9-2 of the Budget and Finances law as long as the amendment of
the Nation’s labor allocation occurs through the adoption of a resolution, which is achieved
through the adoption of this resolution. [1 O.C. 121.9-2].
 If the purpose of this resolution is to approve the five (5) additional positions identified in
this resolution as new unbudgeted positions then in accordance with section 121.9-3 of the
Budget and Finances law the CFO is required to provide the Oneida Business Committee
a written fiscal analysis and any input on the potential unbudgeted position, so that the
Oneida Business Committee can authorize the unbudgeted position through the adoption
of a resolution. [1 O.C. 121.9-3(a)]. This resolution does not provide whether the CFO
has provided the Oneida Business Committee a written fiscal analysis and any input on
the potential unbudgeted positions.

Finally, in FY2024, each area was instructed to budget their vacant positions separately.
I’d presume the addition of these 6.5 position would come out of that pool. This would
not result in addition expenses within the FY24 budget, but it would reduce the
available pool before the process or criteria would be established. For the purpose of
this impact statement, I will include the FY24 into the 10‐year consideration, as no
matter which part of the budget it comes from, it will remain an expense for the Nation.

JUSTIFICATION:
1. Provide specific details for this request and basis for the need for the unbudgeted request.
The 101 General Rental Units that Comprehensive Housing Unit manages have not been serviced property
since the original CHD/Land Management merger in November of 2017. Not only does the area lack
financial resources to address them, they also lack personnel. This request will assist with having a
dedicated supervisor focusing on addressing the preventative maintenance and work order needs.
2. Is this a revenue generating position? If so, please provide specific details.
By starting to address general rental updates, CHD will have the ability to start increasing rental rates which
will in turn assist in future fiscal year increased rental revenue.
3. Can the duties of this position be realigned to such an extent that the request can be postponed until the
next budget review?
Currently general rentals are not being serviced except in emergency work order instances. There is a
great need for this position to oversee the the work order crew and free up the current Rehab
Supervisor to start addressing the vacant units.
