Lynnwood, WALocal News

The City of Lynnwood is actively promoting community involvement by inviting residents to request proclamations, letters of recognition, and welcome greetings from Mayor Christine Frizzell. This initiative encourages local citizens to celebrate significant achievements and events that contribute to the city’s cultural fabric. Requests must be submitted a minimum of six weeks in advance and should adhere to guidelines that prioritize ceremonial purposes over political or commercial endorsements. Proclamations are specifically designed to commemorate national recognition days or to celebrate local contributions to community welfare. However, requests associated with political controversies or discriminatory practices will not be accepted, ensuring that the program maintains its focus on unity and inclusivity.

The Mayor's office aims to foster a sense of belonging and appreciation within the Lynnwood community through this program. By highlighting the importance of local events and achievements, the initiative strengthens community ties and recognizes the efforts of dedicated individuals and organizations. This effort underscores Lynnwood's commitment to creating a welcoming environment for all its residents.
