From Ukrainian
Heraldry site:
"It was confirmed in August, 31st, 2006. Per fess by gules
and azure. Sacred Ioann Gots'kyi in argent closes. Or mountain in
the shape of laying bear drinking from the sea, on the argent
meandr, accompanied in the dexter chief by the head of the girl
pictured in antique Greek tradition.
Sacred Ioann Gots'kyi was born in Partenit and is patron of the
settlement. Bear-mountain is dominant natural object, original
card of a settlement and one of most known symbol of a Southern
coast of Crimea. The head of the girl reflects the name of a
settlement (in translation from Greek - "Maiden"), and
also reminds of the ancient people, leaved there and worshipping
to the goddess Maiden.
The red reflects courage, force and work, the azure symbolizes
beauty and greatness, and in the combination with argent waves -
dark blue sea and light-blue sky.
