Committee member supports Constitution Week proclamation, notes prior recognitions

A committee member said they were "totally supportive of the of the proclamation," but questioned whether the county had already acted on the same recognition, asking, "I thought we had done something for, major, capers, you know, 6, 8 months ago?" The member said the board "passed a resolution saying we were in support of his recognition by the federal government" and that the person had since been formally recognized by the city; the member characterized the current item as bringing recognition "back around to New Hanover County to recognize."

The chair asked a staff member named Betsy if she had anything to add; no substantive reply is recorded in the provided segments. The chair earlier noted the proclamation item would be seen on Monday. The transcript does not record a formal motion, vote, or final decision on the proclamation in the supplied excerpts.
