Congratulations are in order for Rockledge City Manager Brenda Fettrow and Councilman R. Shaun Ferguson, who have received the Home Rule Hero Award from the Florida League of Cities, Inc. for their work and dedication during the 2022 Legislative Session.
The Florida League of Cities, Inc. describes award recipients as "local government officials, both elected and nonelected, who consistently responded to the League’s request to reach out to members of the legislature and help give a local perspective on an issue. They worked tirelessly throughout the legislative session to promote local voices making local choices, protect the Home Rule powers of Florida’s municipalities and advance the League’s legislative agenda."
“On behalf of the League and its legislative team, we’re very proud to present this year’s Home Rule Hero Awards to a deserving group of municipal leaders,” said FLC Director of Legislative Affairs Casey Cook. “We had a record number of Home Rule Heroes this year, which shows the dedication and impact of local officials on behalf of their residents and businesses in protecting local decision-making. These local officials were constantly engaged and actively advocating for their communities throughout the 2022 Legislative Session. They’re heroes for Home Rule and we thank them for their efforts.”
Congratulations, Councilman Ferguson and City Manager Fettrow!
