New Look Home
In giving due respect to the Town’s rich history, a modified version the crest will also be used. It continues to feature elements of the Duke of Richmond’s Coat of Arms and 12 roses that speak to the Town's history of once being the rose growing capital of Canada.
Throughout the years, the crest has more or less stayed intact. The revised crest is different from the previous one in that it removes the words ‘Town of’ in order to allow for an enlarged type size for “Richmond Hill”, and removes the banner that was reinstituted in conjunction with the Town’s 125th birthday some years ago. These changes make it easier to read when reproduced, and allows the Town to maintain the integrity of the historic crest.
The crest will be reserved for use by the Mayor and Council for official Town of Richmond Hill business such as plaques, certificates presented on behalf of Council or the corporation, Councillor’s stationery, as well as our flag.
