Proclamations

Mayor's proclamations declaring special days, weeks or months for community-based, campaigns or programs requested by registered, non-profit societies are often granted by the Mayor. Declaration of proclamations is at the discretion of the Mayor and requests should come from charitable or non-profit registered societies for proclamation that will support improvement of the community through educational/awareness programs, charitable fund-raising or similar activities.

Mayor's Messages

Mayor's messages are short greetings of about four paragraphs usually written for publication in programs or booklets by organisers of community events or conferences. They are signed by the Mayor and can include his picture if requested.

Letters of congratulations or thanks

The Mayor acknowledges achievement or outstanding community work by citizens or organisations with a letter when that will be an appropriate form of recognition. A monitoring program to identify outstanding citizens is in place but often persons in the community will write to request a letter for a deserving person or group.

Certificates of congratulations

Certificates of congratulations are custom certificates for use by the Mayor or Councillors to recognise special events and achievement in the community. Certificates are often presented to people and organisations on reaching a significant milestone in their life or history - an anniversary, birthdays for persons celebrating 65th birthdays and older, certificates to athletes and to businesses on official openings, etc.
