vertical tricolor of red, yellow, and white, with a black and red rendition of
the city's official seal featuring a hibiscus flower. It was adopted by the City
Commission on December 3rd, 1962
According to an article published by The
Palm Beach Post on March 31st, 1976, the flag was designed by Camille O'Neill; a
then 91-year-old former resident who designed and sewed original the flag in
1962, which is now hung at the entrance to Lake Worth city hall. She was a civic
worker tasked with designing the city's seal, and successfully lead Lake Worth
and Palm Beach County to officially adopt the hibiscus as their official flower.

making a "bicentennial version" to fly in Philadelphia.
