Shakhovskaya Joint Territorial Community (JTC) is the most successful community of the Donetsk region and one of the richest communities in Ukraine – has so far “not get” a personal flag, an emblem and an anthem.
In early July, the local administration announced a contest for the best official symbols of the joint territorial community. The deadline for the contest has passed, and proposals from local residents have not been received.
In this regard, the competition was extended by the order of the village head, applications are accepted until September 30. After checking the competition works for compliance with the established requirements, public discussions and voting will be held, and after that, the sketch of the emblem, flag, words and music of the anthem will be approved by the local council at the session.
The emblem must reflect the specifics of the settlements within the JTC, have elements of the official symbolism of the Dobropolsky district, but it is forbidden to make an image of the national emblem, or emblem of other settlements and any names other than logograms – individual letters. The flag must match the symbolism of the emblem.
The text and music of the anthem should reflect the historical and cultural heritage, customs and traditions of the community, the desire to live in an independent Ukraine.
