This flag is not listed on Flags of the World and I was not able to find any information on it. Information from email from Kelli Welch - Administrative Specialist for the City of Lee's Summit, Mo.
The City of Lee’s Summit logo was selected through a contest at Lee’s Summit’s bi-centennial event in 1976. Our City Seal differs from the City logo. Below you will find more facts about our logo:
