Qualified applicants will be selected for banners on a first come, first served basis.

To qualify for a banner, honorees must meet all of the following requirements:

  • United States Armed Forces active duty or honorably discharged service member and military service members who have died in the line of duty. Proof of military service (i.e. copy of military orders or military ID, DD214) will be required.

How to Apply

The City of Melbourne will be accepting applications through January 25, 2023.
