CommUnity, Government, Local Tuesday, March 3rd, 2009Battle unveils city’s new logo, a colorful ‘Star of Alabama’
Free design shows diversity, forward focus, mayor says
The "Star of Alabama" is now the slogan and chief symbol on Huntsville’s city logo.
Mayor Tommy Battle unveiled the design Monday night at a town hall meeting at Merrimack Hall.
It replaces a decade-old logo showing a space shuttle and will be put on city vehicles, letterhead, the city’s Web site and official documents as the budget allows.
The makeover depicts a five-pointed star enveloped by sweeping color strokes that each have significance. A slogan underneath proclaims: "Huntsville. The Star of Alabama."
Former Mayor Loretta Spencer designed the former logo in 1999 featuring a space shuttle streaking across a blue field of stars.
