The City Duma adopted the coat of arms on 30.10.1997, and the flag on
09.07.1998.

There is no record of this flag being registered by the Heraldic Council of
the President of the Russian Federation. The coat of arms of the city was
adopted on 30.10.1997. There was a project for a flag in 2017, based on the
city's coat of arms (https://geraldika.ru/s/491),
but it seems to be just a project.

The coat of arms is depicted on a shield of the French heraldic form. The shield is divided into three parts by wavy lines: the upper part is green; the middle part is silver; the lower part is green. Within the green shield is a silver wavy belt, accompanied at the head of the shield by three golden eight-pointed stars in a row. The shield is crowned with a golden turret with a three-pronged crown and surrounded by golden ears of grain, connected by the Alexander ribbon.

The shield of arms is the same as that of present-day Amur Region, as well as
that of the Amur Region of the Russian Empire:

The Crown is different between the arms of the Region and the City.
