Brent recently wrote in regarding the ever-popular City of Decatur-themed merchandise. You know, the ol’ primary-colored house (with chimney), school (with bell) and non-denominational place of worship?

While I’m sure we’re all quite aware of the auto tags, mugs and t-shirts, Brent’s curious to know if anyone at city hall has ever considered creating a City of Decatur house flag, much like the ones found down in Oakhurst or over in Inman Park (The Inman Park ones are for noting historic rehab). If not, he’d like to contact someone at the city to promote his idea. I’m at a loss for who specifically to contact, so I’m throwing it out there for comment/discussion.

Has the city ever considered a flag with the city logo? What other items would you purchase if they had a CoD logo on them? Carrot peeler? Tennis shoe? Cupcake?
