About

A Citation is the formal act of identifying an individual or entity for something they accomplished or to mark a milestone occasion. Examples include grand openings, anniversaries, retirements, milestone birthdays, and other special events, accomplishments, and occasions.

A Proclamation is an official public announcement that declares a specific date in honor of an observance or other matter of great importance. Examples include Women's History Month, Work Zone Awareness Week, and National Gun Violence Awareness Day. 


NOTE: Submission of a Citation/Proclamation request does not guarantee the approval of said request. Approvals will be made by the County Executive's office on a case by case basis.
