Proclamation Requests

The Mayor and Governing Body issue proclamations for nonprofit organizations with citywide, regional or statewide interest, as a courtesy.

• Proclamation requests are reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Not all requests are accepted.
• Proclamations recognize and are issued for a specific day, week, or month.
• These public service documents are strictly honorary and are not legally binding.
• Proclamations will not be issued to endorse or promote a private, for-profit business that competes with similar for-profit businesses, or to endorse or promote a partisan political position or candidate.

Submit a Request

Submit proclamation requests between four and six weeks in advance of the requested date. Include a draft of the proclamation. Any draft proclamation language may be edited or rewritten at the discretion of the Mayor’s office.

Include contact information for the requestor, including a mailing address and telephone number.
