The Flag - Attributes and Semiology: It consists in a field
with approximated ratio 2:3 divided in six stripes. Superior and
inferior ones are horizontal and enameled in sky blue, occupying
approximately a fourth part of the wide of the field, whereas the
rest constitutes the central stripe divided in saltire forming
four triangles: the superior and inferior are yellow and green
the lateral ones. The Municipality Coat of Arms at the center,
completes the design. The sky blue stripes represent the sky and
seas of Chuao and Cepe, town on the Marinensian coast. The
yellow triangles jointed in one of its vertex alludes to the
human and progressive wealth of the Municipality settlers. The
green triangles also united in one of its vertex represents the
agricultural zone and the majesty of the Henry Pittier National
Park, the greater vegetal lung of the locality. The Coat of Arms
at the center, confers to the Flag the firmness of the
Municipality.
Historical Synthesis: The Municipal Flag, was designed by the a
girl: Miss Berica Araque, who as representing of the Educative
Unit Santiago Mariņo of the town of Payita (Pedro Arevalo Aponte
Parish) gave to the design figure and forms. Today, the Flag
waves in the left mast on the Aerial Square of the Mayor Office,
where was hoisted for first time on November 27th,
