 May 3-9, 2026, as Professional Municipal Clerks Week
 in the State of New York

 WHEREAS, It is the custom of this Legislative Body to recognize
official weeks that are set aside to recognize the valuable
contributions of public servants whose work enhances the lives of the
citizens of New York State; and

 WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its
long-standing traditions, this Legislative Body is justly proud to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaimMay 3-9, 2026, as
Professional Municipal Clerks Week in the State of New York, in
conjunction with the observance of National Municipal Clerks Week; and

 WHEREAS, The Office of the Professional Municipal Clerk, a
time-honored and vital part of local government, exists throughout the
world and is the oldest position among public servants; it provides the
professional link between the citizens, the local governing bodies and
agencies of government at other levels; and

 WHEREAS, Professional Municipal Clerks have pledged to be ever
mindful of their neutrality and impartiality, rendering equal service to
all; and

 WHEREAS, The Professional Municipal Clerk serves as the information
center on functions of local government and community; and

 WHEREAS, Initiated in 1969 by IIMC and endorsed by all of its
members throughout the United States, Canada and 15 other countries,
Professional Municipal Clerks Week is a time of celebration and
reflection on the importance of the Clerk's office; and

 WHEREAS, In 1984, President Ronald Reagan signed a proclamation that
officially declared Municipal Clerks Week the first full week of May; in
1994 and 1996, President Bill Clinton also signed proclamations
confirming Municipal Clerks Week; and

 WHEREAS, This year, the 57th Annual Professional Municipal Clerks
Week will feature a week-long series of activities aimed at increasing
the public's awareness of Municipal Clerks and the essential services
they provide for local government and the community-at-large; and

 WHEREAS, Professional Municipal Clerks continually strive to improve
the administration of the affairs of the Office of the Professional
Municipal Clerk through participation in education programs, seminars,
workshops and the annual meetings of their state, provincial, county and
international professional organizations; and

 WHEREAS, It is most appropriate that we recognize the
accomplishments of the Office of the Professional Municipal Clerk, and
further extend appreciation to all Professional Municipal Clerks for the

vital services they perform and their exemplary dedication to the
communities they represent; now, therefore, be it

 RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaimMay 3-9, 2026, as
Professional Municipal Clerks Week in the State of New York; and be it
further

 RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to The Honorable Kathy Hochul, Governor of the State of New
