## Description of the flag

Traverse City's flag seems to be blue logo on white as seen in the photo at www.traverse.com/traversecity/commission/commission9.jpg (no longer available).

The city of Traverse City logo can be seen here: http://www.ci.traverse-city.mi.us/. The flag is white with the logo centered, and has the words Traverse City under it. There is something in smaller print under City but I can't read it or remember what it is.

The city flag contains the city logo and text identifying a city with "city" in its name as a city. Attached is my vector drawing of the flag.
The January 2018 photo of the flag is from the city's Facebook page.

Traverse City is also designated as a Coast Guard City, which has its own flag. A recent image shows a logo with a helicopter over a disk with a map of the area, and the motto Coast Guard City.
