He stated that they discussed promoting <br />Running Aces in the City. <br /> <br />Mayor Love stated that recently there was a logo committee and noted that he would <br />definitely like a logo like with Council Member King is suggesting to be vetted and <br />discussed more broadly. He stated that there are already some diversity and inclusion <br />issues with having a trapper included especially considering that there is a Native American <br />burial ground located in the City. He stated that there may be some opposition but he <br />thinks the logo looks great. <br /> <br />Council Member King stated that history has shown that many of the trappers were very <br />friendly with Native Americans. <br /> <br />Administrator Statz noted that this topic came up during their logo discussions around <br />whether or not they could honor both heritages with a logo, which can be difficult without <br />becoming too complex. He suggested that the decision be made on whether the City is <br />going to rebrand before a decision is made about a logo. He suggested that it be brought <br />back for a workshop discussion. The banners being discussed are bran neutral. <br /> <br />Council Member King stated that he feels this logo is kind of a story of Centerville and <br />same premise of French architecture that is desired for downtown. <br /> <br />d.
