Description: Recording begins with tribal attorney Marvin J. Sonosky, who talks about all the good he's done but people seem to disagree with that statement. The meeting gets further into the oil and gas resources with the reports of theft in the oil fields. There is debate if Sonosky’s contract should be renewed. The final subject is around the shopping center and bank on the reservation and other economic developments.
