Resolutions & Proclamations

What is the difference between a resolution and a proclamation?

Proclamations are for the purpose of honoring a day, week, or month.  Proclamations are subject to adoption by the Board of Supervisors but may also be issued by the Chairman.

Resolutions are for the purpose of honoring a person or an organization or to demonstrate the Board's position on a particular issue.  Resolutions are subject to adoption by the Board of Supervisors.

How do I request a resolution or proclamation?

If you wish for the Board to consider a proclamation or resolution, please contact the Deputy County Administrator at (276) 634-4605.
