The notice
concerning the emblem seems to say that it applies from 1 May 1972 (two months before the
date on the notice). The emblem features a stylised hiragana mo も forming two
overlapping bold circles, signifying peace of the people, industry and
nature, and portrays the reassuring/emboldened harmony of Mobara City. The notice says that other than in the city flag and employee's emblems,
the emblem may be depicted on other items where necessary to represent
the city.
