Symbolism of the flag, according to this page:
"Blue signifies the atmosphere, free of pollution.
Yellow signifies the wealth found in its products: cereals, root vegetables, vegetables, fruits, and derivatives of its livestock.
Green signifies the beauty found in its natural plains and hills which are in danger of extinction because of burning and logging caused by people who transport
these to the city to utilize them in legitimate ways or as wood for construction. In the center the coat of arms of the parish is found."
