Summary
Ginger Reeves of Cherokee Nation Real Estate Services said trespass reports generally come to the office and staff often coordinate with marshals; she also described the tribe's role in certifying addresses for federal Impact Aid.
Ginger Reeves, representing Cherokee Nation Real Estate Services, told the council that trespass complaints often come through her office and that tribal staff generally coordinate with marshals when responding.
"Generally, we'll get the marshals to go out with us," Reeves said after a council member asked whether the marshals or the office is contacted first. Reeves added that sometimes other agencies call and the matter ends up in her office, which then begins the process.
Reeves also explained the tribe's role in Impact Aid reporting. "Impact Aid is what the, Indian Educated the fed it's for federal dollars from each school. They send their list of children who live on, or parents work on, trust restricted land. And, then we give them a report. We approve the whole list. We go 1 by 1 on all of the addresses and, identify we sign off on that, we identify if it's trust or restricted land," she said.
A council member asked follow-up questions about whether the marshals are contacted first; Reeves replied that the office is generally contacted and will coordinate the response. The report did not include written protocols, response times, or any memoranda of understanding with law enforcement agencies; Reeves described typical practice rather than citing a specific statute or agreement.
