using man logrotate it shows:

----------------------
       create mode owner group, create owner group
              Immediately after rotation (before the postrotate script is run)
              the log file is created (with the same name as the log file just
              rotated).  mode specifies the mode for the  log  file  in  octal
              (the  same  as chmod(2)), owner specifies the user name who will
              own the log file, and group specifies the  group  the  log  file
              will  belong  to. Any of the log file attributes may be omitted,
              in which case those attributes for the new  file  will  use  the
              same values as the original log file for the omitted attributes.
              This option can be disabled using the nocreate option.
