De acuerdo al articulado del mandato edilicio, se tomó el color verde como símbolo de la Antioqueñ:idad que siempre ha caracterizado a las gentes de Envigado, unido al color naranja emblema de la pujanza, dinamismo y proyección hacia el desarrollo y el progreso constante de permanente vigencia en la ciudad."
