Summary

The council proclaimed National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week (April 1218) and National Animal Control Appreciation Week for April 2026, thanking dispatchers and animal-control staff for public-safety and animal-welfare work.

The City of Murphy adopted two proclamations recognizing public-safety telecommunicators (dispatchers) and animal-control personnel for their service and professionalism. A council member read the telecommunicators proclamation noting that the role links first responders and people seeking help in emergencies and asked for a group photo; another speaker noted the city's contract partnership with the city of Parker for animal-control services.

Council members and staff praised both groups for their dedication. "We appreciate your work and you all are very critical to our community," one speaker said of telecommunicators. No council action was required; both proclamations were ceremonial acknowledgments.
