Sunshine on Omaha's skyline: Douglas County chooses its official seal

Douglas County

Omaha’s skyline is the centerpiece of Douglas County’s new official seal.

Commissioners unveiled the winning design at Tuesday’s county board meeting. It was drawn by Miguel Chavez, a South Omaha native, and was one of five finalists from 26 submissions.

Douglas County started the contest for a new seal last July, as part of a 100th anniversary celebration of the Courthouse.

The new image will be Douglas County’s official seal as of July 2013, and will be displayed in the legislative chambers at the Omaha-Douglas Civic Center.
