Leaders in
Senoia want people to recognize the city.
In fact, Mayor
Joan Trammell would eventually like to see shirts available in City Hall
that bears the city's trademark of Princess Senoia that visitors to the
city could purchase.
Trammell unveiled
her proposal to the City Council Monday night. She would like to see the
city's politicians get shirts or jackets with the logo to wear to many
of the government meetings they attend.
The mayor gave
accounts of prior meetings that she had attended where many other municipalities
were strutting their logos proudly.
Trammell has
checked with the city's attorney and said they could use the trademark,
but long-time resident Joanne Utt was not so sure.
Utt said the
city's Historical Society had brokered a deal with a previous administrations
to allow the use of the Princess Senoia logo.
But the catch
is that the city cannot sell the product for a profit.
Trammell said
the city would be selling the shirts at cost to the council members, but
said she would not be opposed to the Historical Society getting a portion
of the proceeds if the shirts were ever sold to the public.
"We just
have a lot of people who come in here who want to buy a souvenir,"
she said.
Utt said she
would discuss the matter with the Historical Society and get back to Trammell,
but she did not see a problem in the city allowing just city politicians
and workers to purchase shirts.
