Summary

The council directed staff to move forward with a proposed city flag design (option 1A) aligned to the city's updated brand and scheduled formal adoption for the Sept. 8 meeting.

Council President Holly Grammer reported that staff, working since April to align city flag designs with an adopted brand, presented three options to the Committee of the Whole. The committee directed staff to move forward with flag design 1A and the council said it will formally adopt the flag at its Sept. 8 meeting.

Grammer said the work incorporated community designs and feedback and that the branding team consulted external groups. The councils direction at the Aug. 18 meeting authorizes staff to finalize materials for the Sept. 8 adoption vote; no formal ordinance or final adoption occurred on Aug. 18.

The council did not record a roll-call vote on the direction at the Aug. 18 meeting; the committee decision was relayed by council leadership during the meeting.
