“We want a flag that flies proudly around the entire city and outside homes. A flag that businesses proudly incorporate within their logos,” the website said. “A flag that the people of Naperville can rally behind. A flag that represents our values. A flag that is ours.”
To remedy that problem, the group is accepting submissions for new flag designs and sponsorships from city organizations and businesses.
