  • Proclamations are accepted no less than three weeks, but no more than 12 weeks, in advance of the proclaimed date.

  • Proclamations should align with the Town’s Cultural Values and Strategic Plan Initiatives.

  • Proclamations shall not endorse for-profit businesses or commercial endeavors.

  • Proclamations shall not address political, religious, or ideological matters.

  • Proclamations will not be issued for birthdays, weddings, or family reunions.

  • Proclamation requests similar to already issued proclamations during a calendar year may be declined.
