Opa-locka residents and organizations seeking official recognition for significant events, anniversaries, or community service can now easily request proclamations, commendations, resolutions of sympathy, and certificates of appreciation from the City of Opa-locka. The City Clerk's office handles these requests, providing a formal way to acknowledge the contributions and milestones that shape the community.

The City of Opa-locka offers several types of recognition tailored to different occasions. Proclamations are specifically issued to recognize special events or conferences, highlighting their importance to the city. For individuals or groups celebrating significant anniversaries, birthdays, or achievements, commendations serve as an appropriate form of acknowledgment.

In times of loss, the city provides Resolutions of Sympathy to recognize the passing of a loved one, offering a formal expression of condolences. Additionally, Certificates of Appreciation are available to acknowledge donations or dedicated service to the city, honoring those who contribute to Opa-locka's well-being and development.

To submit a request for any of these recognitions, individuals should contact City Clerk Joanna Flores. Requests can be sent via email to [email protected] or by calling the City Clerk's office at (305) 953-2800. It is important to note that all requests, with the exception of Resolutions of Sympathy, require a two-week advance notice to ensure timely processing and presentation.
