Kenai, Alaska (U.S.)

No civic heraldry. The Home Page has a photograph of the head of a bald eagle superimposed on a map of Alaska in blue-grey, but as the actual location of Kenai is not marked I do not think that this qualifies as any kind of logo.

A city pin uses a logo designed many years ago. The pin shows Mt. Redoubt, an active volcano in the background, the old Russian Orthodox church in the foreground, a salmon jumping (fishing was our first industry), and an oil platform on the water. Oil was discovered here in 1959. Our motto is 'Village with a past, city with a future.'

Former flag

Based on city council meeting minutes, the former flag of Kenai was adopted in preparation for the Kenai Bicentennial in 1991. The designer was former council member Geraldine C.E. Sparks, at the time part of the City of Kenai Beautification Committee. The flag used the former logo used by the city, which is described by the former mayor on Kenai's above on this page. Williams was mayor at the time, so I find it a bit strange he did not mention that it was part of the city flag.

At the suggestion of Councilwoman Monfor, the bicentennial years of "1791" and "1991" were added. It was also suggested by her that the dates could be removed when new flags were ordered after the bicentennial. It should be noted that the Kenai city flag survived for another decade, based on a news article about Geraldine which shows the city flag was still used. Based on this, it is possible the city has had at least two flags: a bicentennial city flag converted to a regular city flag and a possible regular city flag.

There was no formal adoption of the city flag, but June 12, 1990 can be considered the date of adoption because this was when the design was confirmed. The proportions of the flag were 3:5 and used two colors (I'm not sure if white is counted as a color, but I believe this to not be the case, as this was said when the cost of buying flags was being considered; generally, white does not count towards pricing as it is a "preset".) I am not finding any images of the city flag, which is why I am considering it to be the former flag, plus the fact the logo is obsolete.
