The flag of Provo, Utah, is the official flag of the city of Provo, Utah, United States. The present flag, featuring the city's logo on a light blue field, was adopted on January 6, 2015, after a multi-year debate to replace a previous one. The former flag, adopted in 1989, was ridiculed in particular for its perceived ugliness and its similarity to the Centrum logo, and was voted one of the worst American city flags by the North American Vexillological Association (NAVA). Design The current city flag of Provo, Utah, is described in section 1.05.010 of the municipal code as consisting of a light blue field and the city's logo at the center. The city's logo, adopted in 2012, includes representations of Utah Lake, nearby mountain peaks, and a rising sun for Provo's goals and aspirations. History First flag The first flag of Provo was unveiled on April 7, 1976, and consisted of a red and blue field with a stylized "P" (standing for "Provo") in the center. It was designed by Michael Jorgensen, a Brigham Young University industrial design student, as part of a contest run by the Utah Lake Lions Club to commemorate the city's participation in the national bicentennial. Second flag The second flag of Provo was adopted on April 25, 1989, after it was introduced by then-mayor Joseph Jenkins based on a design by Steven Hales using the city logo. The flag consisted of a pure white field, with the word "Provo" in black lettering with gray shadows on a rainbow bar running diagonally towards the center. The rainbow represented the "eclectic and diverse nature" of Provo according to the city government. In a 2004 survey of city flags in the United States by members of the North American Vexillological Association (NAVA), the Provo flag ranked 143rd out of 150 overall (or 8th worst), with a score of 2.14 out of 10 points. The poll was contested between 150 American cities via an online poll; the flag of Washington, D.C. ranked first, while the flag of Pocatello, Idaho, ranked last. Newspaper references to the survey said the flag was known to be "notoriously bad among flag enthusiasts". The flag's design has been compared to the label on Centrum vitamin bottles, and to a work drawn in magic marker and crayons. Third flag Mayor John Curtis began a public process to replace the second flag in 2013,
