According to
https://www.misantaclara.gob.cu/nuestra-region/region-cizq/simbolos-municipales/171-bandera:
On 11 November 1953, the municipal council approved a motion by Joaqu�n
Montenegro V�zquez declaring the official use of a municipal flag, a product of
the heraldic studies of Luis Torriente B�cquer. The flag was presented on 28
January 1954 for the birthday of Jos� Mart�, ending the activities for the
centenary of his birth. The first flag was made by Mrs. Eulalia Morales C�rdenas
and the shield was the work of Evaristo Cancio L�pez. Currently, the flag uses a
more modernized version of the coat of arms. The original flag's coat of arms is
known to cover four-sixths of the total height of the flag. Clearly, the
background colors are inspired from those of the national flag
