Green Bay Council's moratorium on religous displays doesn't include Creche
Because a "vandal" took down the Wiccan pentacle.

The Festivus Pole that was slated for installation never got put up. And the Green Bay Chapter of the Pastafarians never came through with a display.

snip:
With a pagan Wiccan wreath knocked off the roof by a vandal early Monday, a Christian nativity creche was the lone symbol left.

Schmitt said the wreath would not be reinstalled until the City Council weighed in on draft guidelines.


snip:
Fradette and Schmitt invited non-Christian religions to submit displays, and the city has received at least six such requests. The pagan Wiccan five-pointed star was the second such display, which was added Friday.

Well?

Are you just going to sit there? Put on your Sacred Vestments (ie pirate costumes) and take to the streets!

Or contact the mayors office. That'll work too.
