Proclamations
City of Vaughan proclamations are official statements made by, or under the authority of, Members of Vaughan Council to recognize causes, events and commemorations of significance to the city of Vaughan and its citizens.
Proclamation statements contribute to the fabric of Vaughan society by recognizing cultural diversity and the public good. Proclamations do not carry with them any substantive contribution of goods, services or monies to organizations that request them.
Please note that City of Vaughan staff have been directed to prepare a report for a future Committee of the Whole meeting that proposes updates to the City’s current policies regarding flag raisings, proclamations and illuminations.
As this review is underway, a pause is in place for approving flag-raising, proclamation and illumination requests. All previously approved flag-raising, proclamation and illumination requests are exempted from the requested pause period and will proceed as previously approved.
