Overview

Murter is a community in the Šibenik-Knin County, 30 km north of Šibenik, coverng northern part of an island of the same name. 2,100 inhabitants, most of them in the town of the same name. The territory of community covers also the National Park of Kornati, the series of beautiful islands off coast between Šibenik and Zadar.
Updates from the official gazette:
Odluka o pokretanju postupka za utvrdivanje grba i zastava Opcine Murter, 18.01.2001, Službeni vjesnik Šibensko-kninske županije, br. 6/01, 12.06.2001. - The decision constitutes a five-members commission to determine the community Coat of Arms and the flag, to issue an invited concourse and to establish jurry of experts to judge it and to present the decision towards assembly.   That was over five years ago, but it seems that nothing came out of it yet..

On 13 July 2006 the Croatian Sabor adopted a new law on local subdivision to replace the previous one from 1997 (amended 15 times since then until 2003). The new law is published in the official gazette: Zakon o podrucjima županija, gradova i opcina u Republici Hrvatskoj, 13.07.2006, Narodne novine, 86/2006, 28.07.2006.The law was promulgated on 19 July by presidential decree and it became valid on the day of its issue in the gazette (28.07.2006).
The community of Murter is now named Murter-Kornati (I believe that this is only the tourist issue, Kornati being the famous islets off the coast of Murter).
