image by Eugene Ipavec, 1 February 2006
Kiyose city adopted its emblem in 1961; no flag legislation
flag proportion: 2:3
colour of field: purple
colour of emblem: white; height of emblem: appears to be 3/5 of the flag
height; a stylized katakana Ki キ
Nozomi Kariyasu
The stylised katakana ki キ forms a circle (with two concentric
rings broken at the top, and a vertical bar from the centre to the
bottom). The circle expresses peace and harmony, and the central bar
development/growth and activity. The emblem was chosen after a national
competition in 1961.
