Florida Statutes ("F.S."):
These Statutes govern the conduct of all affairs by special Districts (like Harmony CDD) within the State of Florida; from qualifying as a Supervisor, meeting notice requirements, bidding procedures and limits, to all aspects of financing public infrastructure. The "F.S." section most directly related to CDDs is Chapter 190, but there are several other sections (e.g., Chapters 120, 170, & 197) that deal with various aspects of District business, administration, and financing.
