MEMORANDUM
TO:

Oneida Business Committee

FROM:

Melinda J. Danforth, Director
Intergovernmental Affairs

Cc:

CDC 19-007 Team

DATE:

August 28, 2024

SUBJECT:

Resolution: “Obligation of ARPA FRF LR Overall Priority for CDC Package #19-007”

The attached proposed resolution entitled “Obligation of ARPA FRF LR Overall Priority for CDC
Package #19-007” will allow for the use of ARPA FRF LR dollars to be used to fund the attached
Boundary Signage CDC package that was approved by the Business Committee on July 24, 2024.
Contained within the approved CDC #19-007 Boundary Signage (attached), the budget
information noted that the team would work with the Chief Financial Officer to identify the
funding source. Two recommendations were provided.
1. To include in Fiscal Year 2025 CIP budget
2. To utilize Prior Year Carry Over or TC Savings (aka ARPA FRF LR)

The recommendation to use ARPA FRF LR was due to the FY25 budget reconciliation that was
occurring.
To move this project along to meet the deadlines associated with getting signage complete
prior to the NFL Draft occurring in April 2025, we appreciate the Business Committee’s
consideration of obligating dollars.

Oneida Business Committee Agenda Request

6. Cover Memo:

Describe the purpose, background/history, and action requested:

The focus of NTGCR conferences is for regulatory education. Nationally known figures in Tribal gaming
provide informative general session presentations, and an extensive agenda of specialized quality training
seminars are conducted by highly competent and experienced instructors.
The NTGCR conferences also: Promote cooperative relationships among the commissioners & regulators of
Tribal gaming enterprises and other organizations; Promote exchange of thoughts, information and ideas
which foster regulatory standards and enforcement that lead to consistent regulatory practices and methods
of operations among the NTGCR members; Promote educational seminars, which include commission/
regulatory training, and other related activities; and The NTGCR may act as a gaming regulatory advisory
group to Tribal gaming organizations and others.
These conferences are very beneficial as it allows us to work together on things that may impact the Nation. It
also allows us to network with each other. NTGCR attendance is included in the approved FY-24 Budget.
We are seeking approval due to the number of attendees we would like to send and to comply with the
Nation's Travel Policy.
The Gaming Commission is respectfully requesting for eight (8) employees to attend.

Commission Track Workshop Descriptions
Unlocking Financial Statements - Doug Parker & Dan Bledsoe

In our interactive session we’ll explore the essential components of the Statement of Net Position, Statement of Activities, and Statement of
Cash Flows, providing practical tips for managing and regulating Tribal enterprises. Join us to boost your financial knowledge and gain
confidence in making informed decisions. In this session participants will: Understand the Structure and Purpose of Key Financial
Statements; Develop Practical Skills for Financial Analysis, Apply Financial Insights to Regulatory Practices & Boost Financial Confidence and
Knowledge.

Beyond the Casino: Tribal Gaming's Next Era - Gabe Benedick
Tribal gaming has flourished into a billion-dollar industry characterized by ongoing evolution. This discussion will center on exploring the
prospects and obstacles confronting tribes as they embrace the digital renaissance of gaming. Some things to keep an eye on may include
changes in regulatory frameworks, economic shifts, advancements in technology, and the changing of consumers.

Recent Federal AML Enforcement & US Treasury Updates – Sean Topchi
The recent non-prosecution agreement (NPA) of MGM & Cosmo combined with the Treasury’s 2024 National Money Laundering Risk
Assessment & Illicit Finance Strategy documents suggest that the industry will be seeing scrutiny and enforcement akin to 10 years ago;
when the likes of Caesars, Sands, Hawaiian Gardens, Artichoke Joes and others received penalties that reverberated through the industry
and changed the way AML was looked at. This session will breakdown the compliance gaps and risks identified by the federal government
and how the industry can start to address them.

Morongo Emergency Preparedness and Response Program -Eddie Ilko, Floyd Velasquez, Sr. & Ken Meredith
In this session, panelists will discuss how they developed a robust Emergency Preparedness and Response program, that includes a mobile
Emergency Operation Center (EOC), equipment and vehicle purchase through FEMA Tribal Grants, Emergency Preparedness Plan template
and how employees are trained to know what to do and where to go depending on the emergency. Attendees will learn about how to
develop an Emergency Preparedness Program through real life development experiences, lessons learned from recent weather events and
access to a robust Model Emergency Preparedness and Response Plan. In addition, attendees will learn about where to access tribal grant
resources for Emergency Preparedness and see what a real mobile Emergency Operations Center (EOC) looks like.

Gaming This 75-minute session is designed to provide a comprehensive overview of recent court decisions and regulatory changes

How To Watch A Game You Never Dealt - George Joseph
"I broke into the gaming business in 1974. You were a BJ, Roulette or Crap Dealer..."Case Closed." There was no Mini-Bacc or
all of the Carnival Games "Hell" There was No Surveillance! Skip ahead to the early 1990's and here came all of those new
games... Caribbean Stud Poker, Let It Ride Poker, TCP, UTH, MS Stud, Pai Gow Poker and on and on. Many floor people and pit
bosses (and surveillance) were now tasked with watching casino games they never dealt and many did not understand Poker
and the various Advantage Plays for those games. Because of budget constraints in today's gaming world the reality is that in
many casinos we have fewer floor people watching more games and watching games they may never have dealt and may not
fully understand. This program demonstrates Key Elements and an Integrity Road Map for each game. This presentation will

Training Break-In Surveillance Personnel - George Joseph

Many Surveillance Departments are having trouble restaffing their monitor rooms and are now hiring Break-Ins. One of my
key phrases is...”Everyone is a Break-In Sometime…Just Don’t Stay A BREAK-IN…!” Over the course of several years of training
Surveillance & Commissions, I’ve developed a series of Checklists for each Table Game type and several key casino
transactions and occurrences. With simple training, a Break-In Operator can check Yes or No to various issues…Too many No’s
or Wrong Checkmarks are then reviewed with surveillance management or compliance. (Checklists Will Be Distributed) This
presentation will offer Surveillance & Gaming Commissions an intelligent template to effectively and quickly train Break-In
and seasoned surveillance staffs in the protection of casino assets. The stigma of being a Break-In is erased.

RE: Speaker Invitation - National Tribal Housing Ecosystem Summit

Shekoli Chairman Hill,
It was good to see and visit with you during my visit back home in March.
As an enrolled member of the Oneida Nation of Wisconsin, and Program Officer at Enterprise Community
Partners, Native American Housing Programs, I would like to formally invite you to join a special Tribal
Leader panel during our upcoming National Tribal Housing Ecosystem Summit, August 27‐29, 2024 in Boise,
Idaho.
Our primary goal is to gather practitioners and leaders from all key components of the Tribal Housing
Ecosystem in one place to learn, grow, and collaborate while inspiring new ideas, new collaborations and new
investment opportunities. The audience will be Tribal leaders, Tribal housing and community development
practitioners, and members of the banking and philanthropy communities nationally.
The panel will follow the Opening Plenary session, Wednesday, August 28th. titled "Centering Tribal
Communities – Starting at Home" with speaker Geoffrey Blackwell, NCAI (invited). Some talking points that
you may include, but not limited to the following, if you should decide to attend:
1. Tribal Sovereignty and the power of self‐determination
2. The critical nature of strong communication between Tribal Leadership, program staff and
Tribal entities to implement the vision of leadership for the community.
3. Supporting dynamic Tribal ecosystems
4. Your views as a Tribal leader
In consideration of that, many of the topics mentioned are inline with the Oneida Nation of Wisconsin Vision,
Mission Statement, and Core Values.
Our team has chosen to invite each of our own Tribal Chairman of the Nations to which we belong, which
include yourself, J. Garrett Renvile, Tribal Chairman, Sisseton Wahpeton Tribal Nation, and Chief W. Frank
Adams, Up
