Council Minutes of 06-OS-12 ,,;,g Dennis Lambert, 25057 Carey Lane said he did not have an opportunity to see what the new signage looks like. He asked if the old logo will be on the signage and Council ^ President Limpert replied that it will not. The new logo will be on all of the signs, not the city seal or old logo. Kennedy said the property terminology would be "branding". Lambert said we are talking about a logo, nonetheless. Lambert said he has run into many people in North Olmsted that have grown up with the old logo, and they are disappointed that it's going to be replaced. He recommended that Council talk to the residents about the new logo. Council President Limpert and the Mayor clarified that the new branding (logo) will not replace the city seal on city vehicles, etc. The new logo will be on the city entrance signs. Councilman Kearney said he has not had anybody come to him with concerns about the new branding. The City held numerous meetings and welcomed public input while this branding initiative was going on. Councilman Mahoney said that he likes the sign and new branding and it has gone through the proper process. Gareau said the only people that he heard from regarding this issue were those that were offended that Lambert took liberty with the branding initiative and felt the need to mock it. Gary Porter, 5155 Dover Center Road said he likes the new branding. The seal has nothing to do with it. In the 71 years he has lived in North Olmsted, it has been changed a few times.
