Revising the Trust Board Document

What We Are Proposing:

Current events and the age of the present Delaware Trust Document has made it essential for revisions to bring the document up to date. The Trust Board has drafted a proposed revised document and is presenting it to all Delaware tribal members for comments. Once the comment period ends the document will be changed and put out for a vote.

The final draft will be on the ballot in November for ratification by tribal members. The comment period will end August 1, 2013 to allow time for final revisions. The document that will be on the ballot will be printed in the October Delaware Indian News. All tribal members should carefully the proposed revised Trust Document and offer comments if they wish.
