Correspondence with the Office of the City Manager suggested that the logo
seen on City letterhead (a domed and pillared building facade above the word
PAINESVILLE) was used as a flag.

The image you saw on the city's website is the city logo on white, not the
city flag. I e-mailed the city to confirm my suspicions. This was their reply:
"The logo that you referred to on our website is just that; the current City
logo. It was designed about 8 years ago by Burgess and Burgess. We do not have a
flag with this logo on it. There is a City flag: a dark green background showing
the red brick City Hall building and the word 'PAINESVILLE' above the building
and 'FOUNDED 1815' under the building."
