3×5 American Flag

I am having a legislative meeting at my office and the american flag and state flag are being displayed on a table. What is the display protacol? Should the american flag be displayed to the right of the state flag or visa versa?

I’m interested in putting up a flag pole, but I don’t know how to go about doing it I have a few questions;
1. Should I hire someone or is it something I can do myself?
2. How much will it cost total to install (excluding the flag)?
3. Would it be better to get a pole that attaches to the house instead of the actual pole? My house is 1 story and full brick, so it would have to attach to the eaves.
4. What kind of flag etiquette would be appropriate for this type of flag use? What I mean, do I need to take it down every night, or when it rains/storms, would I need to fold it properly when I take it down.
5. If I wanted to also put my state flag up would it be okay to put them on the same pole if state flag is smaller?
Anyone have a flag in their yard, who can answer these?

I’d like to display an air quality notification flag on our City’s flag pole that contains the US Flag, State Flag and City Flag, in that order. The air quality flag would be below those. Does proper flag protocol adress this?

I was at a recent event in an auditorium where approximately 30 international flags, a state flag, and the American flag were displayed. The international flags were displayed towards the rear of the stage and were hung from wires. The American and the state flags were actually on the stage on flag poles, Hence, the American flag was displayed lowered than the accompanying international flags. I remember being taught that when the American flag is displayed with international flags, it should be flown at at least the same height as the others. So, is the described situation improper flag etiquette or is there a rule that allows for it?

I need to find some more specific information in regards to displaying both the American Flag and a state flag on a single pole. My question is in regards to the state flag.

I visited five different “Flag Etiquette” websites, and all I could come up with in regards is that the American Flag should be flown on top.

Should the state flag be the same size as the American Flag, or does it matter if it’s smaller?
