On June 2013 there was a rainbow flag that was hung
above City Hall. Now the West Hollywood City Council has responded to a growing
criticism of the removal of that flag. The flag will be removing, but there
will be a compromise. In order for the flag to be moved, there will be another
flag hung that incorporates rainbow colors into the city logo. In a last week meeting
the council members agreed to this change. On January the flag was removed due
to a unanimous vote by the council. As soon as the flag was removed they got complains
from the residents because 40% of the people living there identify themselves
as gay or lesbian and four the council members are gay men. The new flag that
will have a rainbow city logo, this logo is already displayed on city vehicles
and on the vehicles of Los Angeles County sheriffs’ deputies in the West
Hollywood Station.
