Coexistence Ordinance
Introduction
An ordinance is a type of legal rule that is included within the regulations, and is characterized by being subordinate to the law.
The term comes from the word "order", which refers to a mandate that has been issued by the person who has the power to demand its compliance. For this reason, the term ordinance also means "legal mandate."
According to different legal systems, ordinances can come from different authorities (civil or military).
Among civil ordinances, the term is mainly used in local administration, with the expression municipal ordinance. Such are those dictated by a town council or municipality for the management of its municipality. Municipal ordinances are usually debated and approved by the plenary session of its collegiate body; although in some cases they may be issued by the authority of the highest single-person body, the mayor or municipal president.
