Overview: In a notable move during the Leon County Council’s annual Board of County Commission Retreat, a unanimous decision was made to extend an official apology for the county government’s historical involvement in slavery. This resolution, proposed by Commissioner Bill Proctor, echoes a similar apology issued by the U.S. Congress for American slavery and segregation. The motion received support from other council members, including Commissioners Welch and Miner, who agreed that the resolution should be included in the current motion rather than as a separate agenda item.
