The Waukee Town Council sponsored a contest for the creation of a Waukee town emblem in 1973 which received entries from residents of Waukee and the surrounding area. All entries were received on an 8 ½ by 11 inch plain sheet paper submitted to the Community Betterment Council. The winning entry was received from Jerome (Brick) Volkmer which incorporated a key into the city name. For his efforts Brick Volkmer was given a gas fueled light. Today, the City of Waukee still utilizes a logo based upon Brick's original design.
The Waukee, Ia flag is a white background with the words "City of Waukee The Key to Good Living" in Blue
The Word "Waukee" is part of a key with the top and teeth of the key in gold. This entire concept is boxed in the blue and gold.
