I wanted to provide you an update on our City of Pinole Seal and Logo. I appreciate you for reading and engaging in this process with us.
This week, the Pinole City Council considered staff recommendations for a process of adoption of a new city seal.
We firmly believe that based on research and changing societal awareness and perspectives, it is most appropriate for the City to consider transitioning away from the use of a human character in the City seal, to avoid all possibility of offense, exploitation, and/or inaccurate representation that can commonly result from using a mascot.
