Setting the Oneida Business Committee Regular Meeting and Executive Session Discussion

Schedule

Summary

Through this resolution, the Oneida Business Committee (“OBC”) declares that regular meetings

of the OBC shall continue to be held on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month, at 8:30

a.m. In addition, it modifies the discussion schedule for quarterly reports and other items submitted

to the Executive Session section of the OBC’s regular meeting agenda in a manner that better

serves the OBC, as well as the membership of the Oneida Nation, and best uses available resources.

Submitted by: Kristen M. Hooker, Staff Attorney, Legislative Reference Office

Date: January 4, 2022

Analysis by the Legislative Reference Office

Article III, Section 3 of the Constitution of the Oneida Nation (“Constitution”) provides that

regular meetings of the Oneida Business Committee may be established by resolution of the OBC.

The Oneida Business Committee Meetings law (“Law”), which was established to identify how

the OBC is to carry out the responsibilities delegated to it by the Constitution, states, with respect

to its meeting schedule, “the Oneida Nation Secretary shall present, on or around October of each

year, a proposed schedule for regular meetings of the Oneida Business Committee for approval by

the Oneida Business Committee.” [1 O.C. 117.6-1]. And, for reports to the OBC, the Law further

states “the Oneida Nation Secretary shall present, on or around October of each year, a proposed

schedule for presentation of reports by entities at regular meetings of the Oneida Business

Committee for approval by the Oneida Business Committee.” [1 O.C. 117.6-2].

Along with its schedule, the Law governs, in part, organization of the OBC’s meeting agenda. [1

O.C. 117.7-1]. Relevant here, section 117.7-1 of the Law requires that the OBC agenda contain a

section entitled, Reports, and a section entitled, Executive Session. The Reports section is to be

used to present quarterly reports as directed by the OBC, [1 O.C. 117.7-1(p)], while the Executive

Session section is to be used to discuss matters that require confidentiality under the Open Records

and Open Meetings law [1 O.C. 117.7-1(q)]. The Law allows for the Executive Session section of

the agenda to be organized to meet the needs of the OBC. [Id.]

Over the years, the OBC has been presented with and adopted the following regular meeting

schedules:

• BC-07-07-87-A – regular meetings every Tuesday at 1:30 p.m. and every Friday at 9:00

a.m.;

• BC-03-25-88-B – regular meetings every Friday at 9:00 a.m., and informational meetings

the first Monday of each month at 7:00 p.m.;

• BC-04-26-91-A – regular meetings every Wednesday at 9:00 a.m.;

Page 1 of 2

Public Packet

•

20 of 72

BC-02-11-04-A – regular meetings every other Wednesday at 9:00 a.m.;

BC-12-10-08-A – regular meetings every second and fourth Wednesday at 9:00 a.m.;

BC-06-23-10-E – executive discussion meetings added every second and fourth Tuesday

at 9:00 a.m.;

BC-11-23-16-C – regular meetings every second and fourth Wednesday at 8:30 a.m., and

executive discussion meetings every second and fourth Tuesday at 8:30 a.m.;

BC-12-27-16-A – regular meetings every second and fourth Wednesday at 8:30 a.m., and

quarterly report meetings the fourth Thursday in January, April, July and October at 8:00

a.m.;

BC-09-27-17-D – quarterly report meetings the fourth Thursday of February, May, August

and November at 8:00 a.m.;

BC-01-22-20-D – quarterly report meetings eliminated, executive discussion meetings

every second and fourth Tuesday at 8:30 a.m., and regular meetings every second and

fourth Wednesday at 8:30 a.m.; and

BC-09-23-20-C – executive discussion meetings eliminated, and regular meetings every

second and fourth Wednesday at 8:30 a.m.

The OBC has established a quarterly reporting expectation in the Executive Session section of its

regular meeting agenda for the Gaming and Retail General Managers, as well as the Executive

Human Resources Director, and has now determined that holding periodic, separate discussions

on items submitted to that section is the best way to use available resources. In addition, the OBC

believes that it would better serve the membership of the Nation and the OBC.

Through this resolution, the OBC declares as follows with respect to its regular meeting and

executive session discussion schedules:

• That, regular meetings of the OBC shall continue to be held on the second and fourth

Wednesday of each month, at 8:30 a.m.;

• That, for the first regular meeting of February, May, August and November, the discussion

on the Executive Session section of the regular meeting agenda shall be held on Tuesday

at 8:30 a.m., starting on February 8, 2022; and

• That, for the second regular meeting of each month, the discussion on the Executive

Session section of the regular meeting agenda shall be held on Tuesday at 8:30 a.m.,

starting on January 25, 2022.

This resolution further declares that it supersedes all prior motions, practices or resolutions

regarding the subject of regular meetings of the Oneida Business Committee.

Conclusion

Adoption of this resolution would not conflict with any of the Nation’s laws.

Statement of Effect

Extension of Declaration of Public Health State of Emergency Until March 24, 2022

Summary

This resolution extends the Nation’s Declaration of the Public Health State of Emergency until

March 24, 2022.

Submitted by: Kristen M. Hooker, Staff Attorney, Legislative Reference Office

Date: January 4, 2022

Analysis by the Legislative Reference Office

The Oneida Business Committee (“OBC”) adopted the Emergency Management law to provide

for the development and execution of plans that protect residents, property and the environment in

an emergency or disaster; provide for the direction of emergency management, response and

recovery on the Reservation, as well as coordination with other agencies, victims, businesses and

organizations; establish the use of the National Incident Management System; and designate

authority and responsibilities for public health preparedness. [3 O.C. 302.1-1].

Under the Emergency Management law, the OBC is delegated responsibility to proclaim or ratify

the existence of a public health emergency. [3 O.C. 302.8-1]. A public health emergency means

the occurrence or imminent threat of an illness or health condition which is a quarantinable disease

and poses a high probability of a large number of deaths or serious or long-term disability among

humans. [3 O.C. 302.3-1(p)]. No proclamation of an emergency by the OBC may last for longer

than sixty (60) days, unless renewed by the OBC. [3 O.C. 302.8-2].

As a result of the COVID-19 virus, in accordance with the authority granted to the OBC under the

Emergency Management law, on March 12, 2020, Chairman Tehassi Hill signed a “Declaration

of Public Health State of Emergency” which set into place the necessary authority, should action

need to be taken, and allows the Oneida Nation to seek reimbursement of emergency management

actions that may result in unexpected expenses. [3 O.C. 302.8-1]. The OBC has since extended

the Public Health State of Emergency until January 23, 2022, through adoption of the following

resolutions: BC-03-26-20-A, BC-05-06-20-A, BC-06-10-20-A, BC-07-08-20-A, BC-08-06-20-A,

BC-09-09-20-A, BC-10-08-20-A, BC-11-10-20-A, BC-12-09-20-D, BC-01-07-21-A, BC-02-1021-A, BC-03-10-21-D, and BC-05-12-21-A, BC-06-23-21-B, BC-07-28-21-N, BC-09-22-21-A

and BC-11-24-21-F. [3 O.C. 302.8-2].

The Emergency Management Director and Community/Public Health Officer have advised an

extension of the Public Health State of Emergency declaration, supported by information from the

Centers for Disease Control, as well as the level of spread of COVID-19 throughout the State of

Wisconsin, surrounding states, and the United States of America. This resolution provides that the

OBC has determined that continuing the Public Health State of Emergency remains necessary.

Additionally, the OBC adopted resolution BC-08-03-21-A, Setting Public Gathering Guidelines

During Public Health State of Emergency - COVID-19, which provides that when vaccination

levels of Oneida’s members and Oneida Nation employees reach seventy-five percent (75%), the

safety of public health will be considered to be effectively managed, and the OBC shall review

whether a need for a declaration of a state of public health emergency continues to exist. This

resolution identifies the Nation’s current vaccination levels for both members and employees of

the Nation.

Through the adoption of this resolution, in accordance with section 302.8-2 of the Emergency

Management law, the Oneida Business Committee extends the Public Health State of Emergency

declaration until 11:59 p.m. on March 24, 2022.

Conclusion

Adoption of this resolution would not conflict with any of the Nation’s laws.

Michelle Myers, Community/ Public Health Officer

RE:

Recommendations to extend public health emergency

Throughout the pandemic, we have chosen to follow the science in our mitigation strategies

aimed to slow the spread of COVID-19 in the Oneida Community. Because infectious

disease does not follow jurisdictional boundaries, it is critical to consider data from areas

surrounding the Reservation. Resources considered in providing recommendations:

• COVID-19 cases; Oneida Nation Reservation, WI, Brown and Outagamie Counties.

• COVID-19 testing percent positivity; Brown and Outagamie Counties.

• COVID-19 Hospitalization and deaths; WI, Brown and Outagamie Counties.

• COVID-19 vaccination; WI, Brown and Outagamie Counties.

The COVID-19 Omicron variant accounts for more than half of circulating COVID-19 illness

in the United States. As Omicron is thought to be significantly more transmissible, it is only

a matter of time before the Omicron variant takes hold as the dominant strain here in WI.

The vast majority of hospitalization and deaths connected to COVID-19 illness are among

the unvaccinated. Current COVID-19 vaccination data among the American Indian

population in WI and our local communities fall below that of other races. Emergency

Authorization of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine for children 5-11 years of age was

implemented in WI on 11/05/2021. More time is needed to vaccinate enough individuals to

build collective/ community immunity needed to stop the spread of COVID-19.

On July 27, 2021, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) updated guidance

to recommend masking regardless of vaccination status in certain settings such as schools

and in areas with high transition of COVID-19 infections. Due to the continued “very

high”(Outagamie) and “critically high” (Brown) levels of COVID-19 community transmission,

the Public Health Order to require facial coverings indoors and in enclosed spaces

regardless of vaccination status will likely be extended.

In collaboration with Oneida Emergency Management, the health response team

recommends the Oneida Business Committee extend the public health emergency

another 60 days.

CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT

This Confidentiality Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into on the ___ 1st day of ___________,

November, 2021 (the “Effective Date”) by and between Inventory Optimization Solutions, LLC (“IOS”) and

______________________________________________________________________, Oneida Nation,

located

909

Packerland

Dr.,

Green

Bay,

54303

___________________________________________________ (the “Company”).

WHEREAS, each party, for the purpose of evaluating a project, purpose or relationship or to

determine the feasibility of entering into a business transaction (the “Purpose”), desires to disclose to the

other party certain proprietary and confidential information.

NOW THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

The Receiving Party (defined below) will, for a period of three (3) years from the date of receipt of

any Confidential Information (the “Confidentiality Period”), (a) maintain and not disclose Confidential

Information received hereunder, (b) use the same degree of care as it uses to safeguard its own

Confidential Information of a similar nature (but in no event less than reasonable care), (c) use such

Confidential Information only for its internal evaluation relating to the Purpose, and (d) make such

Confidential Information available only to its employees or agents who have a “need to know”, who have

been informed by the Receiving Party of the confidentiality obligations contained in this Agreement and

who agree to abide by and comply with such confidentiality obligations.

“Confidential Information” means information that one party (the “Disclosing Party”) discloses to

the other party (the “Receiving Party”) in the form of (a) documents or other tangible materials marked

with the legend “Confidential” or the substantial equivalent, (b) visual or oral disclosures that are identified

as confidential at the time of disclosure and are confirmed in a writing that is marked as “Confidential” or

the substantial equivalent, and forwarded to the Receiving Party within ten (10) days after disclosure, or

either party’s project plans, financial information, program specifics, pricing and/or purchasing

information, business strategies, forecasts, employee and vendor information, software (including all

documentation, code and specifications), hardware and system designs, architectures, structure and

protocols, products, processes, devices, inventions, methods, trade secrets, customers, contracts, vendor

lists and such other information that either party considers confidential or proprietary regardless of the

form or manner of disclosure to the Receiving Party.

Confidential Information shall not include any information which is:

already known to the Receiving Party prior to being received hereunder;

independently developed by the Receiving Party without reference to the Confidential

Information;

publicly available or otherwise in the public domain through no wrongful act of Receiving

Party;

rightfully furnished to the Receiving Party from any third party without confidentiality

restriction; or

disclosed by the Receiving Party pursuant to any court order or valid request by a

governmental agency, provided the Receiving Party shall notify the Disclosing Party

within a reasonable time prior to disclosure and shall allow the Disclosing Party a

reasonable opportunity to seek appropriate protective measures.

Nothing in this Agreement may be construed as granting the Receiving Party (a) any right to use

Confidential Information received hereunder except as provided herein, or (b) any right, including but not

limited to a license to use, under any patent, trademark, copyright, or other intellectual property right now

or hereafter owned or controlled by the Disclosing Party. The Disclosing Party shall retain all right, title

and interest in and to the Confidential Information disclosed pursuant to this Agreement and any copies

thereof.

NO WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ARE MADE WITH

RESPECT TO THE PROVISION OR USE OF THE CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION, INCLUDING

WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR OF

MERCHANTABILITY. The Confidential Information is provided “as is”.

Neither party has any obligation under or by virtue of this Agreement to enter into a definitive

agreement relating to the Purpose or any other arrangement with the other party.

This Agreement will be effective for six (6) months commencing on the Effective Date, unless

otherwise terminated by mutual agreement of the parties in writing or by either party upon ten (10) days

prior written notice to the other party. Upon receipt of the Disclosing Party’s written request, the

Receiving Party will promptly return or destroy all Confidential Information received hereunder and all

copies thereof. The Receiving Party’s obligation to protect Confidential Information will survive

termination of this Agreement and continue for the length of the Confidentiality Period.

Each party acknowledges that monetary damages may not be a sufficient remedy for the

unauthorized disclosure or use of the Confidential Information and that the aggrieved party shall be

entitled, without waiving any other rights or remedies and without the necessity of posting bond, to seek

such injunctive or equitable relief as may be deemed proper by a court of competent jurisdiction.

This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the parties related to the exchange of

Confidential Information, and supersedes any prior agreements, written or oral. This Agreement may not

be modified, except by written amendment duly executed by an authorized representative of each party.

If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any of the provisions hereof so overly broad as to be

unenforceable, such provisions may be reduced in scope by the court to the extent it deems necessary to

render the provisions enforceable. The failure of either party at any time to enforce any right or remedy

available to it under this Agreement or otherwise with respect to any breach or failure by the other party

shall not be construed to be a waiver of such right or remedy with respect to any other breach or failure

by the other party. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of

the State of Texas. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an

original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Facsimile or other

electronically reproduced signatures shall be deemed to be originals for purposes of this Agreement. All

notices hereunder shall be deemed to have been duly given upon actual receipt if addressed as follows

(unless such addresses are changed by written notice): For IOS, Attn: General Counsel, 250 E. John

Carpenter Freeway, Suite 120, Irving, TX 75062 and for Company, the address first set forth above.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, an authorized representative of each party hereto has executed this

Agreement on the date indicated below.

Commented [P1]: Provista Legal Comment: We cannot

remove. We may need injunctive relief to stop an

unauthorized disclosure. Can we get a further explanation on

how this is a waiver of sovereignty?

to remain silent.
