Oak Hill issues proclamations, hears low-crime report and Parks & Rec event plans
Summary
Commissioners issued proclamations for Safe Boating Week, Travel & Tourism Week and Fair Housing Month; Lieutenant Brian reported low crime in April; Parks & Rec announced a July 4 barbecue/cook‑off and a successful children’s fishing event with about 95 registrations.
The commission read several proclamations recognizing National Safe Boating Week (May 16–22), National Travel and Tourism Week (May 3–9) and Fair Housing Month (April 2026). Members of the Coast Guard Auxiliary accepted the Safe Boating Week proclamation and offered vessel safety checks and hurricane preparedness outreach for Oak Hill.
Lieutenant Brian of the Volusia Sheriff's Office told commissioners April was "very low in crime" and cited clearance rates for certain incidents. Commissioners and staff thanked volunteers for a recent children’s fishing event and the Parks & Rec Advisory Board reported about 95 children registered for that event. Sarah from the Parks & Rec Advisory Board asked for the commission’s support to stage a July 4 barbecue/cook-off fundraiser; commissioners gave consensus to proceed and asked staff to assist with logistics and possible funding sources.
The proclamations and community reports highlighted local volunteer involvement, partnership opportunities with county and nonprofit organizations, and follow-up actions to support event logistics and safety outreach.
