The link to the page about symbols in the official municipal website is dead.
It’s now (prob. unchanged) at

Although the same flag as reported back in 2008 is displayed (as a weird
left-right panning animation with desaturation to black and white and back to
color,
here), its description mentions blue, absent in the flag, and doesn't
mention white. This may be caused by mistaken duplicating of the text above,
about the coat of arms, or maybe the animated GIF has wrong colors - we'd need
an independent confirmation of the flag with middle white stripe.
Here's the putative flag with middle blue stripe.

I also agree that the graphical depiction of the flag on their official
website is very poor, but one has to take into account that it is a poor
Municipality (in terms of budget) and also most likely very few people know how
to handle proper cgi (I myself for instance can't design or "GIF" flags, still...)
Anyway... After looking much closer, the description of the coat of arms
mentions blue, and scrolling down, when describing the flag, they described the
same color (blue) exactly the same as the above reference. So to me it is a bad
case of "Ctrl + C and Ctrl + V" (or copy-paste). So the attached image you sent
with blue stripe does not exist at all. You can verify for instance, on their
Twitter account (
https://twitter.com/@alcaldiaorocue ) that they only have the tricolor
featuring white instead of blue (
