Linn county in Iowa, US, has a new flag, as reported on 17.05.2006. The web page states "The majority of votes cast favored this contemporary urban/rural design." The news is here: www.linncounty.org/news_details.asp?Content_Id=1110&News_Id=673

At www.co.linn.ia.us/news_details.asp?Content_Id=1151&News_Id=695, the flag is shown in ~3:5, with much lighter hues and using only one shade of green.

Flag used at sesquicentennial celebrations

Back in 2002, the Iowa State Association of Counties website hosted an account of each county's history, signed by its County Recorder, and illustrated with a black and white flag image. It is not clear whether these flag images were provided by the county administration or not.

All archived copies of the pages about Linn County still at web.archive.org/web/*/www.iowacounties.org/County+Info/Flags/Linn.htm lack the image of the flag. I hope we'll be able to find it some day. It was not the same flag as shown above, as this was created in 2006 and that page was put up in 2002.
