Overview

Looking at <www.pinoleros.com>, I understand that the logo ot the municipio looks like a coat-of-arms, the lower left quarter of which looks like the municipal flag, which is made of four colours : green, yellow, white, blue. No more details about the design: "Para el año de 1,999 se estableció el logotipo de la municipalidad, así como la Bandera que representa el municipio. Diseñados por Jairo J. Tinoco Icabalzeta. Estos emblemas se dibujan de la siguiente manera: El significado del logotipo municipal es el siguiente: Esquina superior izquierda: el cáliz, que representa la religiosidad. Esquina superior derecha: Bandera de Nicaragua. Parte inferior izquierda: Bandera de la municipalidad. Verde: nuestros campos. Amarillo: nuestro sol, en relación con Dios. Blanco: la paz, la libertad de un pueblo. Azul: nuestro cielo, nuestros mares; nuestra nación. Parte inferior derecha: maquina de escribir que representa el trabajo administrativo o de oficina y una pala que representa el trabajo de construcción, limpieza y otros que se prestan en nuestra municipalidad."
On the same page are presented the "Centros De Estudio En El Area Urbana." It looks like educational institutions in Matiguas do have flags too, but no description.

Translation: "The logotype and the flag of the municipality were established in 1999. The emblems were designed by Jairo J. Tinoco Icabalzeta. The meaning of the municipal logotype is the following: Upper left corner: the chalice, representing religiosity; Upper right corner: the flag of Nicaragua; Lower left part: the flag of the municipality. Green: our fields; Yellow: our sun, in relation with God; White: the peace and freedom of a people (a village?); Azure: Our sky, our seas, our nation. Lower right part: a typewriter which symbolizes the administrative work and a shovel(?) which represents construction work, [limpieza?] and other done in our municipality."
Since nothing is said on the arrangement of the colours, I would assume that they follow the pattern of the national flag, i.e. horizontal stripes.
