The city emblem was adopted on Jan 1st 2007 but there is no flag law. The
white flag has a green and a blue two color city emblem in the center. The city
emblem is a stylized hiragana も Mo of Motomiya. It represents an abandunt nature
such as water, green trees and rivers and a flying bird and merged two town and
village and an image of the new city which makes a leap forward into the future.

The emblem is a stylised hiragana mo も, in the shape of the ribbons
that are worn/sold for various causes. The notice says something along the
lines of: The emblem symbolises the energy of the leaping people and the
impetus of the town, spreading in all directions.
