Nathan Fawcett
TREASURER OF METLAKATLA
Treasurer Nathan Fawcett has devoted most of his professional career to the Metlakatla Indian Community and its politics. In 2008 he became Treasurer and stayed in office until 2015. He took a break to work with Forestry as the Geospatial Information Systems technician, run the Tribal Transportation Program and conduct IT support for MIC. During this time, he ran for council and sat at the table as a councilmember for one term. Once again Nathan ran for office and became the Metlakatla Indian Community Treasurer once again.
During this current term, Nathan’s time has been primarily designated to the pandemic and the funding that has come through as a result. Beyond the COVID-19 work, he has handled the restructuring of staff. Overall, his objective is to address reoccurring weaknesses in the financial management of the tribe by working with council, executives and staff as it is a team effort.
