NAVARRE BANNER DESIGN <br /> <br />McMillan noted Joan Wolfe and Mary McKenzie have submitted a revised design and have obtained <br />some cost estimates for the Navarre banner. <br /> <br />Wolfe stated Mary has an updated version which is the one without the City’s white logo on it. <br /> <br />Mary McKenzie stated the revised banner now has the City’s blue logo on it. McKenzie indicated her <br />keyboard broke so she was not able to do the blue logo on the example that was provided to the Council. <br /> <br />McKenzie stated at first the design was very small, but they have enlarged it to 24” x 70”, so it should <br />look very nice.
