Ordinance 119-C: The Proper Folding and Deployment of Bunting in Public Squares
Passed unanimously by the Ministry of the Populi in Year 980 following a regrettable bunting tangle during the Feast of St. Ulric, Ordinance 119-C lays out the legal expectations for bunting behavior in shared civic spaces.
Key Provisions:
- Bunting shall be triangular in nature, unless festival-specific geometry is approved.
- No single strand of bunting may exceed 33 cubits without structural reinforcement or whimsical purpose.
- Entanglements resulting in civic delay shall incur a 1 aureal fine and mild public chiding.
- Improvised bunting using undergarments, tax forms, or dried meats is strictly prohibited.
The ordinance concludes with this note of clarification:
“Bunting shall be festive, not threatening. It is a gesture, not a net.”
