§ 1.4. Powers.

(A)

The City shall have all available governmental, corporate and proprietary powers and may exercise them except when prohibited by law. Through the adoption of this Charter, it is the intent of the electors of the City to grant to the municipal government established by this Charter the broadest exercise of home rule powers permitted under the Constitution and laws of the State of Florida.

(B)

The only limitation concerning alienability of City owned property is that there shall be no sale, exchange or lease in excess of five (5) years of any park property while it is being used for public purpose unless such sale, exchange or lease is approved by a majority vote at the next regularly scheduled election of the voters of the City. This provision shall not apply to any valid written contractual obligations entered into prior to the effective incorporate date of this City nor shall it apply to any city owned educational facility, library property or parking facility not located in a park or any utility or access easements or rights-of-way. This provision is intended to restrict sales, exchanges or leases and shall not be applicable to any operating, management or other agreements.
