Request a City Proclamation
Proclamations are issued by the Office of the Mayor to provide an opportunity for the Mayor and City Commission to recognize exceptional events, groups or people. The goal of a proclamation is to recognize and celebrate the extraordinary achievements of city residents and non-profit organizations, to honor occasions of importance and significance to the residents of DeLand, and to increase public awareness of issues with the hope of improving the well-being of citizens of DeLand.
Proclamations recognize a day or week and in some cases the month can be recognized.
We ask that requests be submitted three weeks prior to the due date. Some groups have suggested proclamations which may be submitted for consideration.
Any draft language submitted may be edited or revised without notice at the discretion of the Mayor’s Office.
As proclamations are within the discretion of the Mayor, some requests may not be granted.
Unless advised otherwise, all contact regarding this request will be to the above listed person.
We will try to honor your request for presentation at a City Commission meeting or presentation in person, but certain dates may not be available due to length of agenda, availability or other prior commitments of Mayor or City Commissioners or other reasons. The Mayor’s Office will contact you regarding coordination of these presentations.
Greetings from the Mayor or other forms of recognition/thanks can also be requested of the Mayor. Greetings and/or other recognition shall be used to honor special events or individuals within the City of DeLand. These may include conventions, community celebrations, award ceremonies, graduations, etc.
We ask that recognitions please be submitted three weeks prior to due date.
