Chino Hills asks residents to design new flag for city’s 30th
anniversary
Flags are supposed to be abstract and not include
city logos or writing, city staff says

With the
city’s 30th anniversary coming up, Chino Hills Mayor Brian Johsz wanted the
community to help design a new city flag. Not long after introducing the item to
the City Council on Tuesday, Oct. 12, however, the thought of altering the flag
— currently the city’s original logo slapped onto white cloth with gold fringe —
raised concerns and a simmering controversy between those wanting to keep the
flag as is and those supporting a change. Despite some varying opinions,
the City Council voted 5-0 to launch a citywide flag redesign contest, asking
residents to submit their designs for a new flag.
The city’s current logo and flag contain three pictorial
elements — rolling hills, a large oak tree and a soaring hawk — with the words
“City of Chino Hills Incorporated 1991” underneath. The existing Chino Hills
flag depicts the city logo with hills, a large tree and bird.
While the outcome is still up
in the air the City Council is moving head with the city flag
design contest. Residents have until Nov. 10 to submit their designs. A city
panel, consisting of two council members and members of city commissions and
staff, would judge the winner. The city can accept the winner’s design, modify
it, or reject all entries and not make any changes.
The city’s logo was approved June 8, 1993, less than two years after
incorporation. Chino Hills will celebrate its 30th year as a city on Dec. 1,
2021. A monochromatic logo was approved in April 2013 as a “refreshed city logo”
and is used on letterhead, business cards and lapel pins, explained Valerie
McClung, community relations manager. A flag was not approved by City Council
action at either time, she said.

The Chino Hills Flag
Design Contest Committee has recommended a revision of a design submitted by a
resident for a new city flag. The Chino Hills City Council will make a decision
during the 7 p.m. meeting Tuesday in council chambers.
The committee
chose three images out of 49 contest entries submitted by residents for first,
second, and third place. The three entries then went through a series of
revisions as recommended by the committee. The committee then chose the design,
shown at right, which is the revised version of the entry that won second place.
If the City Council decides to select and approve a new flag, staff will bring
back a resolution to officially adopt the new flag.
The committee
recommends that the original city logo remain on the official city tile,
according to a city staff report. If a new flag design is chosen, the original
city flag will be displayed at City Hall.
To view the original and
revised versions of the three winners, visit
