The city emblem was adopted on Feb 20th 2006 but there is no flag law. The white flag has a blue and a green two color city emblem in the center. The city emblem is a stylized kanji 奥 inside and O and S outside. The blue color stands for River Kitakami and a clear sky,the green color for the main industry agriculture and forestry. It represents images of the city and the citizen who is improving and developing into the dreamful future.
