In order to meet various tribal needs, the tribal council intends to create a number of administrative bodies under CTC 04.03, and to appoint an administrator for each. Administrators, who may be paid or unpaid, may be a person, a board, a committee or a committee, who is primarily responsible for the daily management of their specific administrative body. All administrators are expected, subject to tribal council approval, to seek out and apply for federal, state, local government and private funding sources in order to meet tribal needs.

When a financial assistance request has been granted, the tribal Chief Financial Officer (CFO) shall receive, expend, and account for funds as directed by the tribal council. Each administrator shall consult with the granting entity and coordinate with the CFO in order to ensure compliance with all contract terms, federal regulations, and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).

The tribal council expects the CFO and all administrators to coordinate their efforts to provide timely and comprehensive reports of program activities and expenditures. Substantially, all activities of administrative bodies require or result in the receipt and/or expenditure of funds. These financial transactions are made within a variety of different authorities delegated by the tribal council to administrators. Tribal and federal laws require that financial management and related activities are to be done in accordance with GAAP and provide for adequate protection of tribal assets. [Res. 22-120, 2022.]
