The board adopted proclamations recognizing Earth Day (April 18), Relay For Life (May 1) and National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week (April 12–18), and staff outlined tree giveaways, survivors' events and community outreach tied to each observance.

The Liberty County Board of Commissioners read proclamations at its April meeting recognizing Earth Day on April 18, 2026; Relay For Life on May 1, 2026; and National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week April 12–18, 2026.

Dr. Karen Bell, executive director of Keep Living Beautiful, invited residents to Bryan Commons and outlined event details, saying the Earth Day program will run 10 a.m.–2 p.m. and include free fruit and flowering trees for registrants. On Relay For Life, staff read a proclamation that invited all cancer survivors to a survivor dinner and the evening event; commissioners also received a staff proclamation recognizing telecommunicators' role in emergency response. "Before a deputy arrives, before fire or EMS is on scene, it is the telecommunicator who answers the call," a presenter said, urging formal recognition of the week.
