The height of the emblem is actually 46/72 of the height (46/100 of the fly). According to the town website (links in Japanese), the emblem is a stylised katakana ta タ, the outer ring symbolising a harmonious town and the inner circle depicting the morning sun, symbolising unlimited development. The emblem symbolises bright harmony and the town rapidly expanding (?).
