Topeka’s mayor and city council voted 8-1 Tuesday evening to adopt a new city flag featuring a white five-pointed star at Topeka’s site on the state map.
Mayor Michelle De La Isla and Councilmen Brendan Jensen and Mike Padilla spoke positively of the new design, which has been a topic of discussion in the community for several months.
“I was particularly excited to see how everybody embraced this,” Jensen said.
Councilwoman Sylvia Ortiz cast the dissenting vote, saying she likes the new flag but felt like it had been “rammed down my throat.”
