Logo & Rack Card
In 2007, the Commission formed a Task Group to establish distinctive visual cues that promote and "brand" the Commission, including colors, fonts, logo and tag line.
The logo is an old fashioned key with stylized steps as the "teeth" of the key. It symbolically reflects the functions of the Commission and elements of heritage preservation.
The rack card incorporates elements from the District of Mission Coat of Arms and utilizes a recognizable heritage palette.
