Checking the latest issues of the official gazette of the Brodsko- posavska County at <www.bpz.hr>, and there are some news from the communities there:

Rješenje Središnjeg državnog ureda za upravu o odobravanju grba i zastave opcine Sikirevci, 13.12.2004, Službeni vjesnik Brodsko- posavske županije, br. 3/05, 05.03.2005. Statut opcine Sikirevci, 31.01.2006, Službeni vjesnik Brodsko- posavske županije, br. 3/06, 13.03.2006.
Design: "Heraldik-art" d.o.o. Rijeka.
The coat of arms of Sikirevci is: or an axe argent handeled maroon bendwise sinistre stuck in a stump issuant from a base vert. The axe (Croatian: sjekira, locally sikira) is a reference to the community name.
The flag is green with the coat of arms bordered white in the middle.
The first one adopts the symbols on 30 March 2004. The second one is decision on beginning of the adoption process, published at the same time as the first one for whatever reason. The third one is determination to order the design from Heraldic-art Rijeka - this was payed 10736.00 HRK if you wander, including VAT (it comes to roughly 1500 EUR). Then a decision of 2005 amends the Statutes to include the description of the coat of arms and the flag, and the next decision acknowleges the approval from the central authorities. The approval (rješenje) of the Central Office for Administration is also printed in the official gazette, which is handy and quite unusual otherwise. And finally, the 2006 Statutes include the description similar to 2005 amendmend but adds a claim that it is the historical coat of arms of the community, even though it has clearly been devised only in 2004...
