Summary

The council voted to revert to the city's former logo following public comments and members' objections to a newer design; the motion passed 4-1.

The Selma City Council voted Jan. 21 to revert the municipal logo to the previous design used before a recent refresh.

Councilmembers and several speakers said the older design better reflected Selma'0s identity; proponents called it a return to tradition. Councilmember Trujillo voted no.

The motion was offered during regular business and carried on a roll-call vote. City staff will follow up to implement the administrative changes needed to replace the logo on city materials.

Why it matters: A city'0s logo is a branding choice that affects signage, stationery, digital materials and vendor contracts. Staff told the council changes can be phased administratively; costs for replacing logo assets were not presented at the meeting.
