What is a Proclamation?

A proclamation is an official document issued by Mayor Dean J. Trantalis to commemorate a specific time period (day, week, or month) for the purpose of raising awareness about an issue, celebrating milestones, or recognizing events.

How to Request a Proclamation

• A proclamation may be requested via e-mail, fax, phone or mail. E-mail your request to SWyman@fortlauderdale.gov
• Please submit your request a minimum of two weeks before it is needed to allow adequate time for your request to be considered and prepared.
• In order to better determine whether a request can be fulfilled, please provide a draft of the proclamation or supporting information.
• The Mayor’s Office reserves the right to modify or deny any proclamation request.
• If a proclamation has been issued in the past, a new request still needs to be requested each year.
