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.
