City Flag

Gospic is the capital of the Lika-Senj County. It has about 20 000 inhabitaints, the urban area itself having about 9 000 of these (this is I believe the 1991 census, the 2001 census gives just under 6000 for the city itself, no doubt due to the war. Source: Hrvatska enciklopedija, 4, 2002).
The Previous Flag that was against regulations (using two colurs, and with logoid coat of arms) was replaced for a real thing in 1999 with the decision issued in the official gazette: Odluka o izmjeni Odluke o grbu i zastavi Grada Gospica, Službeni vjesnik Grada Gospica, 2/99. According to a decision granting use of the Coat of Arms to a small animal farm association in Službeni vjesnik Grada Gospica 6/02 available on line at <www.gospic.hr>
Since it is an amendment to a previous decision, it probably amends the decision from mid-1990's adopting the blue-white-blue flag.
The mentioned web site on a different page quotes what is most certainly direct citation from the decision
