LITTLE VALLEY – Politicians in Cattaraugus County want to cover the bare breasts on the county’s seal.
As first reported by the Olean Times-Herald, some local politicians say they received complaints from residents while on the campaign trial.
The seal has been in place since the 1800s. It features two women depicted in Greco-Roman style with their breasts uncovered.
Versions of the seal display the breasts tastefully covered up, while others, including one inside the legislative chamber, exposes all.
Lawmakers plan to discuss the issue and address possible solutions in coming sessions.
