The Florida Association of City Clerks 50th Anniversary
WHEREAS, the Office of the Municipal Clerk is a time-honored and vital part of local government; and is
one of the oldest among public servants; and
WHEREAS, the Office of the Municipal Clerk provides a professional and essential link between the citizens,
the local governing bodies and intergovernmental agencies at the local, state and federal levels along with
other essential services; and
WHEREAS, the Florida Association of City Clerks (FACC) is the professional membership organization for
Florida's municipal clerks and others who work within the clerk's office; and
WHEREAS, FACC began in 1972 when its founder, the late Robert N. Clark, CIVIC, City Clerk of Sunrise, saw
the need for an organization to bring together like-minded people to unite the voice of all municipal clerks,
to share ideas and to assist one another in the work of municipal government; and
WHEREASS, FACC celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2022, and a golden anniversary is a momentous
occasion worthy of commendation and Florida's cities, towns and villages will all join in observation of this
celebratory event; and
WHEREAS, municipal clerks continually strive to improve the administration of the affairs of the Office of
the Municipal Clerk through participation in educational programs, seminars, workshops and the annual
meetings of their state, provincial, county and international professional organizations; and
WHEREAS, FACC is a primary source for the educational programs, seminars, workshops and webinars for
educating Florida's municipal clerks and those who serve in the clerk's office, and municipal clerks look to
FACC to provide the training needed to obtain their Certified Municipal Clerks (CIVIC) and Master Municipal
Clerks (MMC) certifications; and
NOW, THEREFORE, I Frank D'Ambra, III do hereby recognize that the Village of Tequesta celebrates the
50th anniversary of the Florida Association of City Clerks. The FACC is commended for 50years of excellent
service provided to the municipal clerks in the State of Florida and I call this observance to the attention of
our citizens.
In Witness Whereof, we have set our hand and caused to be affixed the seal of the Village of Tequesta
this day of .12022.
