Subject: Council abuse of Power

To All Members of Metlakatla

The only way we can get out town back is to vote the incumbents out of office.

Right now we only have one voice in the council and he needs help. Members are still leaving town to look for work.

I was told that the Mayor gets $124,000 yearly, so I asked to see a print out of the town payroll and was told that was private information. I said, “No, it’s not”, all federal money coming to town was based on the members-so it is the members money, you vote the people in office to spend it for us, we have the right to know where it is going.

We have organized crime controlling the town. We can’t even elect a mayor of our choosing, the council took that away from us. Three Council members,
Solomon Atkinson,
Paul Brendible and
Jeffery Moran
took over the A.I.P. Plant, changed the name to Alaska Native Fish Co., but used A.I.P checks and left the company in debt for and undisclosed amounts. They should be held accountable.

They still owe the Fishermen, Power & Light and the Town They claim they did not make any money, but they took the time to shred all the office papers (checks?) including seven large totes.. We have pictures taken April 15, 2008.

Rumor has it that federal money was used to operate the A.I.P Plant, who gets the profits? This needs to be investigated by the BIA, FBI and/or a responsible agency.
