Council issues proclamations recognizing municipal clerks and law enforcement memorial week
Summary
The Hiram City Council issued proclamations honoring municipal clerks and designated a law enforcement memorial week in May, and recognized Deputy Brandon Cunningham among officers who died in the line of duty in 2024.
The Hiram City Council used part of its meeting to issue proclamations honoring municipal clerks and to designate a law enforcement memorial week in May.
During the meeting the mayor read a proclamation recognizing professional municipal clerks and specifically thanked Municipal Clerk Melissa Chosewood and Deputy City Clerk Lisa Garrett for their service. The proclamation described municipal clerks as “the professional link between citizens, local governing bodies and agencies of government,” and encouraged recognition of their work.
Separately, the council proclaimed a law enforcement memorial week for May 2025 and acknowledged officers who lost their lives in the line of duty. The proclamation named Baldwin County Deputy Brandon Cunningham and noted he died in the line of duty in August 2024; the council expressed sympathy for families and fellow officers.
The proclamations were ceremonial actions to recognize public servants; the meeting record does not show additional formal directives or budgetary actions tied to the proclamations.
