Please confirm that the MBQ Lands Department has a copy on file. This will assist in processing documents according to the wishes of the CP holder. Thank you, Lands Department ATTENTION MORTGAGE HOLDERS It has come to our attention that many insurance companies will ONLY notify the MOHAWKS OF THE BAY OF QUINTE if your existing house insurance policy has been cancelled, but will NOT when the policy has been renewed. This creates a problem when incentives, rewrites and renovations are requested. You will not qualify if your house insurance policy on file is not up to date. In order to ensure your policy is current, we ask that you mail, fax or deliver renewal form when received. will be short staffed for staff appreciation Yorí:wase ne Kanyen’kehá:ka tsi Kenhtè:ke (Mohawks of the Bay of Quinte Community Newsletter) is available at: Bayview Variety Village Variety Smoke and Coffee Xpress 49 Quick Stop Smokin’ Speedway Kanhiote Library Sadie’s Lane Sub-division Mohawk Admin Building Ferry Lane mailboxes Community Wellbeing Centre Tyendinaga Mohawk Council Minutes MARCH 19, 2018 A meeting of the Tyendinaga Mohawk Council was held on Monday, March 19, 2018 at 9:30 a.m. in the Council Chambers.
