Resident proposes a city flag to celebrate Aurora pride
Summary
During public comment, Bridal Filyaw proposed issuing a city flag to signal community solidarity in times of need and said she has a prototype available; the chair directed her to the community development office for next steps.
Bridal Filyaw addressed the Aurora City Council during the public comment period on July 22 to propose creating and flying a city flag to symbolize community pride and mutual aid.
"I would love to have the opportunity to hang in a war flag high and proud to show others the pride I have in our town," Filyaw said, describing how neighbors rallied when her lost tortoise was found.
The chair thanked Filyaw for bringing the idea and advised her to consult the community development office to discuss placement and permitting. Filyaw said she has a prototype available for council or staff to review. No formal action or vote was taken on the proposal during the meeting; the chair suggested staff follow up off the meeting record.
