Description of the flag

City of Carmel, Hamilton County, Indiana. Established in 1837 as a town of Bethlehem. The area was previously a domain of Delaware (Miami) Indians. Became a home of the Quaker settlers. Incorporated in 1874 as a town of Carmel (name changed because there already was a Bethlehem, Indiana). In November of 1974, a referendum took place as to whether Carmel should become a Fourth Class City. The residents voted in the affirmative. Population: about 26,000

The flag is blue with a white rising diagonal bearing the name CARMEL.  In the upper hoist is a large yellow star above the date 1837.  In the lower fly is the city seal(?) with the date 1976 above it.

The flag is divided into three horizontal bars of red-black-red. A thick yellow border surrounds the edges of the flag, and each bar is separated by a yellow outline. There are two yellow scrolls. The top one reads "CARMEL FIRE DEPARTMENT", the bottom one reads "ESTABLISHED 1900". There is a red, shoulder patch-like emblem in the very center with a yellow outline.
