WINDOW ROCK, Ariz. – The Council of Governance-Certified Chapters will meet July 28 at the Navajo Nation Museum regarding the reorganization efforts of government certified chapters.

The meeting, which starts at 10 a.m., will begin with presentations discussing the histories of both the Navajo tribal government and Council of Governance Certified Chapters (CGCC). Presentations conducted by the Office of Navajo Government Development, Navajo Division of Community Development and the Office of the Speaker are to follow.

Members of the CGCC will also discuss and consider four options for reorganization. The four options include: 
 
1. Amending the Office of Navajo Government Development to include Government Certified Chapters as a sub-entity
2. Establish a new office for Governance Certified Chapters under the Navajo Division of Community Development
3. Converting the Office of Navajo Government Development into the Office of Governance Certified Chapters
4. Establish a new independent Office of Governance Certified Chapters
 
After presentations, the 11 government certified chapters will have the opportunity to provide comment on which option is the best possible solution or recommendation for reorganization.

Once an option is chosen, the Office of Legislative Counsel will then provide feedback on moving forward with the selected option.
