The City Council on Tuesday night chose a new logo for Peoria to replace the Indian-head logo. The new logo is pictured to the right. It’s blue, green, and yellow, and features silhouettes of the twin towers, Commerce Bank building, and Murray Baker bridge. The city paid Converse Marketing $30,000 to design the new logo.

But the real costs will come later as vehicles, stationery, buildings, etc., all have the logo replaced on them. The city doesn’t have the money for that, so the plan is to phase in the new logo over time. That means we’ll be seeing both logos for a while.
