Next week, the City of Corvallis will unveil a new logo, replacing its current 39-year-old branding.
Corvallis Public Information Officer Patrick Rollens said the city’s current logo—a courthouse, trees and mountain—sometimes causes confusion.
"So the courthouse is the Benton County Courthouse, not City Hall, and then the mountain in the background is Marys Peak which is on our skyline, but it's outside Philomath," he said.
He said the new logo and other branding updates, designed by a local business with input from the community, will be more digitally friendly and more specific to Corvallis. The logo will be mostly text and the other branding updates will include native plants and beavers.
The new design will be unveiled during Monday’s city council meeting and will roll out in November.
