ST. PAUL, MN — A Minnesota panel last week chose the final state flag and seal design concept.
While the State Emblems and Redesign Commission can still modify the designs before the Jan. 1 deadline, "S224" and "F1953" will serve as the basis for the next Minnesota symbols.
Because it was agreed upon by the commission earlier, the seal is closer to being finalized. Meanwhile, modifications to the flag could include the shape of Minnesota, the number and color of stripes, and the star.
