Description of the flag

From www.burkburnett.org/government/council/minutes/01/min012901special.htm

"The Board of Commissioners of the City of Burkburnett, Texas met in a special called meeting on Monday, January 29, 2001...... ...... Item 2. Mike Slye, City Manager introduced Nita Lax to the Commissioners. He stated Mrs. Lax has been working on a city flag and is here to present it tonight.

Mrs. Lax presented a drawing of the flag she designed. The background color is black, lettering in white for 1907 (year Burkburnett was founded) and gold lettering for the city name. After much discussion, a motion was made by Commissioner Mike Tugman, seconded by Commissioner Matt Patterson to have the flag made professionally with Mrs. Lax overseeing the exact details and colors. Motion carried unanimously.

The Commissioners thanked Mrs. Lax for the time she spent creating the flag."
