Description of the flag

The council flag policy refers to use of the national and state flags without mentioning a council flag. On the other hand, a newsletter from a council member includes a photo with a flag which the file suggests is a council flag:

The flag is a light blue with a charge that looks like it could be the council's heraldic achievement.

Heraldic standard

This flag is a heraldic standard. I would guess that it was included in the letters granting the Shire arms, and doubt that it is actually used by the shire.
