The Northern Arapaho Business Council has been given two weeks—or until October 23—by the tribal court to show why it has declined to fire the two top executives of the Wind River Hotel & Casino, despite being ordered to by the tribal council last month.
The order was issued by the Northern Arapaho Tribal Court, which ordered the business council to show “sufficient cause” why it has so far declined to carry out instructions by the tribal council, which on September 9 ordered that CEO Jim Conrad and Assistant Manager Andrea Clifford be dismissed.
Following that order the business council took a vote in which only three of the six members voted to fire the executives. The court took its ruling after a tribal member asked it to intervene. The member also asked that Conrad be “banished” from the reservation.
