Whose Tongue Has More Tines?

Compare and contrast what Tribal Legislative Affairs Director & Oneida Seven Generations Corporation Board member Nathan King, Tribal Treasurer Tina Danforth and Tribal Chairperson Ed Delgado say in the excerpt of the August 28, 2013 BC Regular Meeting video below as opposed to what’s stated in Exhibit B (pages 10 & 11) in this document:

Oneida Seven Generations Corporation is the majority shareholder in IEP Development, LLC[.]

In conjunction with venture partner AITI, IEP can acquire rights to manufacture and assemble and has the exclusivity to market the waste-to-energy systems to tribal, municipal and county governments throughout the United States.

See also this regarding both Treas. Tina Danforth and OSGC President & Chair Atty. Bill Cornelius traveling to promote incinerators and liability-inducing financing to other tribes while invoking their Onedia titles:

In fact, Tina Danforth was absent at the September 11, 2013 BC Regular Meeting because she was at NAFOA’s 2013 Fall Finance & Tribal Economies Conference and one of the topics was:

Financing vehicles for tribal energy…projects

It should be known that, despite what’s said on the video, a potential buyer did express interest in purchasing the Tower Foods building having seen a sign that it was for sale, but when he inquired about it he was told that OSGC could not sell the building.

Why can’t the Tower Foods building be used by Tsyunhehkwa for indoor hydroponic gardening and serve as an educational and fresh produce resource for Oneida schools and community members in keeping with the principles of Food Sovereignty, as well as be used as part of a year-round Farmers Market-type retail facility along the lines of this:

A suggestion to do just that was made to Business Committee members this past July and, prior to realizing he’s jumped off the deep end, Oneida Eye editors even spoke directly with Vice-Chair Greg Matson about the topic and advised that the Tribe could partner with Milwaukee’s Growing Power. Greg pooh-poohed the idea.

Apparently since General Tribal Council won’t allow OSGC to use the Tower Foods building as an incinerator, the BC would rather let OSGC sell the building instead of let Tsyunhehkwa use it for the health, educational & economic benefits of the community.

When it was asked at tonight’s Community Discussion on the Tribal budget when OSGC would pay back the money it ‘borrowed’ from the General Fund for legal fees, Tribal CFO Larry Barton said that OSGC would do so if they “receive a settlement from the City of Green Bay.”

Why not just say ‘If they win the lottery’?

Who – if any of them – is telling the truth?
