Printed herein is the Charter of the City of Arcadia, Florida, as adopted by Laws
of Fla. ch. 5080(1901). Amendments to the Charter are indicated by parenthetical history
notes following amended provisions. The absence of a history note indicates that the

corrected without notation. For stylistic purposes, a uniform system of headings,
catchlines and citations to state statutes has been used. Additions made for clarity
are indicated by brackets. Sections or parts of sections which have been converted
to ordinances, repealed or rendered obsolete by operation of state law have been deleted
from the charter without notation and the subsequent sections renumbered at the direction
of the city attorney. The sections or part of sections which have been converted to
ordinances have been codified in the Code of Ordinances. The location in the Code
