CC - Item 6A - Discussion on a Procedure for Issuance of ProclamationROSEMEAD CITY COUNCIL
STAFF REPORT
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: GLORIA MOLLEDA, CITY MANAGER AA IL
DATE: JUNE 14, 2021
SUBJECT: DISCUSSION ON A PROCEDURE FOR ISSUANCE OF
PROCLAMATIONS
SUMMARY
At the May 25, 2021, City Council meeting, a discussion was held regarding the issuance of
proclamations. The City Council directed City staff to bring back a procedure on how
proclamations should be issued. To facilitate the process, City staff compiled a list of routine
proclamations (Attachment A) that can be approved on an annual basis. By approving a list
annually, staff can coordinate proclamation presentations with ample time. Any item not on the
list will be presented to the City Council for discussion and approval before officially declaring
the proclamation.
DISCUSSION
Proclamations are ceremonial documents to honor an individual or organization, celebrate or
create awareness or commemorate a particular day, month, or year. Proclamations are designated
by a specific event and date; therefore, to simplify the process, City staff compiled a list of
routine proclamations that have been presented in the past. If the City Council agrees, the
following will be the new procedure to issue any future proclamations:
• Proclamations listed in Attachment A, are routine in nature for regional or statewide
events or recognitions and will be approved under the Consent Calendar on an annual
basis. These items will be automatically agendized under Presentations without City
Council discussion.
• New proclamation requests, not listed in Attachment A, will be agendized for discussion
and City Council direction. If the new proclamation request is approved by the City
Council, the item will be agendized and presented at the next City Council meeting. The
new item will also be added to the annual proclamation list.
