Ephrata council selects new city logo, chooses variant B3
Summary
After narrowing options and a tie-breaking revote, the council selected logo variant B3 for the city's new branding palette.
Ephrata City Council selected a new city logo on a council ballot, choosing variant B3 after a revote between two suboptions.
Katie, a staff member overseeing the branding project, asked councilors to choose between two main logos and, if they chose option B, to select among three size variants. Katie explained the process: "If you go with logo a, the majority votes, we're done. If we go with logo b, I will then ask, do you want b 1, b 2, or b 3?" Councilors cast ballots; council member Valley initially had trouble joining remotely but later participated.
After an initial tie among subchoices, councilors re-voted on the two remaining options and declared B3 the winner. Councilors directed staff to finalize the chosen logo using the color palette previously selected and to circulate any minor refinements by the end of the day.
The selection was handled by internal ballot during the meeting and did not require a formal ordinance or resolution.
