During the presentation Mr. Peter Leatherman presented a graph depicting responses of residents of what they “liked most” about the City (see attachment for the complete list). •Vitalink, Inc. developed five logo and three message options, which were reviewed by the Council on January 23rd and February 13th. On February 13th, the Council narrowed the five logo options down to three for public review. At that time the Council directed staff to conduct a public review of the three logo and message options. •On April 10th, staff presented the results of the public review of the logo and message options per the direction of the Council. During the meeting Council directed staff to work with Vitalink in develop new logo options for consideration. •On April 24th and May 1st the Council listened to the presentation on and discussed the top themes and taglines for purposes of ranking and guiding the development of additional city logo options by Vitalink Inc. The Council ranked and reached consensus on the “themes” and “taglines”, which are as follows: •The City is a complex and dynamic first-ring suburban city with a high desire to project •The City is a very diverse city •The City desires to make known the physical assets and skilled human resource •The City desires to develop, execute, and coordinate the promotion of the City’s brand and image •The City desires to compete nationally and internationally LOGO SELECTION •To communicate location/proximity and/or affordable housing/living. •The two logos include some people in addition to the houses and directional approach. •The logos designed with some pop, adjusted to fit the messaging and added more pop/color. 1 2 3 4 6 5 7 8 TAGLINE SELECTION •Based on voter input “At the Center.” •Logos seldom stand alone •If keeping the existing tagline “A Great Place to Start, Great Place to Stay”, it is recommended to consider going with “A Great Place to Start” •Open Ended / Build Around •Stronger Focus Group Message of Affordable and Proximity (Start) •Strong Focus Group Message for Change •Is there a consensus of the Council regarding a City logo? •Is there a consensus of the Council regarding a City tagline?
