Translated from municipal
web site:
"The flag, made of three colours (green, white and red), is
rectangular, with a triangle placed at hoist, green with seven
white stars representing the seven rural hamlets of the
municipality, and two equal stripes white and red."
The photography
of the flag shows a much shorter flag (<~3:4, with the
triangle covering 60% of the flag length). The caption says that
the flag was designed by Satur and adopted when Isidro Ramirez
was Mayor.
