Description

Local Council of Rekhasim (meaning mountain ridges) is situated in Zevulun valley, 12 km from Haifa between Qiryat Ata and Nesher . Est. 1952, Local Council since 1959 and has 7,000 inh. On my visit on 1 September 2001 there was no flag besides the national flag on the city hall, but a flag showing a blue emblem on a white field, with a semicircular inscription above, was spotted on the local civil guard point (across the city hall). As seen in my photo of the flag, the inscription above the emblem in my image should be semicircular.
Sources: author's own observation, 1 September 2001.
The municipal emblem was published in the official gazette (Rashumot), YP 1816, 13 April 1972.

In another visit, I spotted two variants of the flag. Same note apply on those too.
