The Town of Erin has abandoned their new municipal logo after public outcry over the design.
Less then a month after the new logo was unveiled, town council has directed staff to dispense with the new logo and assemble variations of the previously reviewed icons and conduct consultations with the public before implementation of a possible new design.
When the new logo was launched on September 13, the town was met with social media backlash saying it resembled many other logos.
The township is now in a “transition phase” as it will continue to use the now-abandoned logo in conjunction with the old municipal logo until a new recommendation is approved. Before another logo decision is made, council will be made aware of any further costs surrounding a new logo implementation.
