The town emblem was adopted on Mar 1st 2006 by Notice No 1 but there is no flag law. The white flag has a green, a red and a blue three color town emblem in the center. The town emblem is a stylized hiragana おいらせ Oirase. The circle symbolizes a cooperativeness of the town people. The green color stands for abundant natural circumstances, people-friendly garden town, the red color for a vigor of the residents and the blue color for fresh stream of River Oirase and powerful Pacific Ocean.
