New St. George City FLAG PROPOSAL – St. George, Utah

A local man proposed a new city flag design to the St. George City board of governors on Thursday morning.

"Our current flag is in dier need of an update," said Cory Chase, a St. George native. "We need a flag that represents us today, not who we were a hundred years ago."

Chase's design, shown below, was the topic of a three hour presentation at St. George City headquarters.

"My new flag design highlights visual symbols designed to serve as a rallying emblem throughout the whole city," said Chase. "The design sends a clear message about who we are."

Chase has been out stumping all around Washington County trying to get the required amount of signatures to formally put his new flag design to a vote.

Local citizens have had a variety of reactions to the new flag.

"I like the new flag," said Anne Hornsby, a St. George native. "You can look at it and instantly know that it's our city. The old flag was too generic with a city crest that could easily be confused with other cities."

"It captures the spirit of our city," said Conrad Gripentrog. "That's what a good flag is supposed to do."

While it seems that the majority of locals like the new flag, the reviews haven't all been positive.

"This new flag is woke bull****," said Grady Billings.
