2022 branding exercise

The City of Amesbury in Massachusetts undertook a branding process in 2022, out of which came a potential brand-flag which is blue with the new city logo on it:

I reached out to the City and here is what I learned:
The City of Amesbury, although undetaking a branding package, didn't officially adopt a flag, nor try to produce it, so there are no copies of the flag. In fact, the City of Amesbury is not using any flag other than the US flag, as the City was 59th Massachusetts municipality that voted in favor of changing the State flag, and after the change of the status of town to city it also is not using the now former town flag.
