New City Logo - Revealed!
The current City logo has been in place since the 1960's. The logo has served us well, but 
it is time for a new logo that will take us into the future. It is important that this logo encompasses everything that Parma has to offer - diverse housing, small business, industry, a faith centered community, and an interest in preserving greenspace.
We are excited by what the City's new logo represents, and we look forward to implementing in the coming months and years. Thank you to everyone that participated in the selection process.
