Description of the flags

According to my email conversation with Administrative Assistant/City Clerk Lori Moller, a design for Harvard's city flag was approved on March 17, 1975. However, 2 variants of the flag are used, and the available record about these flags is unclear.
One flag (red flag) is now being shown in the city council chamber and has been used since at least 1996 (but probably earlier). The other flag (blue flag) more closely matches the present city logo and has been produced by a vendor since 2014.
