South Lake Tahoe City Council Considers Changing City Seal
The South Lake Tahoe City Council held a discussion about updating the city seal. Council member Scott Robbins proposed altering the dotted line through the middle of Lake Tahoe, suggesting it end diagonally to better represent the actual state boundaries.
This would mark the first change to the seal since 1966.
“The city seal has stood as a link between our past and present. It has marked every chapter of our city’s history and remains a powerful emblem of who we are,” said South Lake Tahoe City Clerk Susan Blankenship, urging to preserve the original seal.
The proposal was approved in a 3-0 vote and will return for final approval in November.
Summary: The South Lake Tahoe City Council is moving forward with a proposal to modify the city seal for the first time in decades, despite heartfelt calls to preserve the historic emblem.
