She said perhaps something <br /> 44 different needs to be done, that will express more of Orange County. She said this would allow <br /> 45 for use as more than an official seal. She suggested a partnership with Steve Brantley to work <br /> 46 toward something more representative of Orange County. She also said it is important from a <br /> 47 branding perspective that the right colors and fonts are used. <br /> 48 Commissioner porosin asked how the current process works with the design that is <br /> 49 brought forth. <br />
