PURPOSE: To approve the appointment of a Review Committee for the County logo.
BACKGROUND: On May 21, 2013 the Board received an overview of the County's Marketing
and public relations projects. A motion was made "that the Board of County Commissioners or
designated members would participate in the design or review of any logo for overall use to
represent Orange County, including the review of any already developed logo; and that the
Board of County Commissioners will have final approval of any such logo, emblem or
representation." The motion was seconded and unanimously approved.
At its September 12, 2013 work session, the Board discussed the County logo and expressed
concerns about the design and design process for the logo. The appointment of a Review
Committee will provide an opportunity for the Board members to participate in the design
process and finalize a redesigned County logo to recommend to the Board of County
Commissioners (BOCC).
The Review Committee will;
1. Review the current County logo
2. Review alternative logo designs
3. Make a recommendation to the BOCC
Commissioners Renee Price and Penny Rich have volunteered to serve on the Review
Committee with Public Affairs Director Carla Banks and Interim County Manager Michael
Talbert. The Review Committee will report back to the Board of County Commissioners prior to
or at the December 10, 2013 regular Board meeting.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no anticipated financial impact for the County to review logo
designs.
RECOMMENDATION(S): The Interim Manager recommends that the Board appoint
Commissioners Renee Price and Penny Rich to serve on a Review Committee with Public
Affairs Director Carla Banks and Interim County Manager Michael Talbert to review the County
logo.
