According to a letter received from the mayor of the City of
Yauco, Puerto Rico on April 18, 2001, the correct and actual Flag
of this Municipality consist of two horizontal bands with the
Coat-of-Arms centered in the middle of the flag. The superior
band is black and simbolises the color of the coffee. The
inferior yellow band simbolises the color of the Sugar Cane.
Yauco is known as the "City of the Coffee" (La Ciudad
del Cafe).
Juan Colon de Jesus, 28 April 2001
The town of Yauco was named "city" on 1 January
2004, by the federal government after a request by the PR
Legislature and the PR Institute of Culture. Its new Coat of Arms
should have a five-towered mural crown. Because its flag has the
shield in a center position, it will also change accordingly.

Yauco - The flag is quartered in cross, 1st and 4th in black,
2nd and 3rd in yellow. The city shield appears over the 1st black
quarter. A coffee bough without its fruits appears over the 2nd
yellow quarter. Yellow stands for sugar cane, and black for
coffee, the main produce of Yauco; they are also the sporting
colors of Yauco.
