Symbols of Canalejas del Arroyo

The flag of Canalejas del Arroyo is prescribed by an Order issued on 25 June 1997 by the Government of Castilla-La Mancha and published on 4 July 1997 in the official gazette of Castilla-La Mancha, No. 30, p. 3,704 (text).
The flag is described as follows:

Flag: Rectangular panel, in proportions 2:3, composed of five horizontal stripes in proportions 1/8, 1/8, 1/2, 1/8, and 1/8, the outer stripes, blue, the intermediate, white, and the central, green.

The coat of arms of Canalejas del Arroyo is prescribed by an Order issued on 25 June 1997 by the Government of Castilla-La Mancha and published on 4 July 1997 in the official gazette of Castilla-La Mancha, No. 30, p. 3,704 (text).
The coat of arms is described as follows:

Coat of arms: Per pale, 1. Argent two pallets azure, 2. Vert a wheat spike and a branch of olive all argent in saltire. Grafted in base, wavy argent and azure. The shield surmounted by a Royal crown closed.

The Royal Academy of History rejected the proposed arms. The conjunction on the diagonal partition line of the base of charges of the same color, arranged in pale and fess, respectively, induces a "weird" and unpleasant" esthetic effect.
The Academy recommended to keep the quarters alluding to the toponym [the blue pallets for canalejas, "small canals", and the waves for "del Arroyo", the Brook's] and to suppress the quarter charged with a branch of olive and wheat spike in saltire, a figure little compliant with good style and meaningless, as too general. This would also suppress the slightly unfortunate reunion of close colors, here blue and green.
The Academy proposed to correct the arms as "Per pale, 1. Argent two pallets azure, 2. Fessy wavy argent and azure. The shield surmounted by a Spanish Royal crown.
