    Editor's note— The provisions of section 1.03 not printed above were either repealed by the Municipal Home Rule Powers Act (F.S. ch. 166) or converted into an ordinance by such act which has not been readopted. The provisions of section 1.03 are adequately provided for by such act.

    The provisions of paragraphs (b) and (h) insofar as they related to the exercise of extraterritorial powers, were not affected by such act. (Such powers are to be as provided by general or special law.) See Fla. Const. art. VIII, § 2(c); AGO 073-478. See also F.S. ch. 180. Insofar as they relate to the exercise of powers within the corporate limits, they are limitations on power that were either repealed by F.S. ch. 166 or converted into an ordinance.
