Symbolism

Arms

The gold shield represents the sun shining on the verdant earth in the area. The spray (the V-shapes) can symbolize a plant reaching for sunlight, an irrigation water-spray, a gusher produced when hitting oil, and a progressive people and community, reaching for the future, always looking up to better things. The wavy bar recognizes the effect of the wind on the surrounding area.
