THE CITY SEAL.

Sec. 35. Corporate seal.

The Corporate Seal of the City of Charlottesville shall be a
design within a circle, one and three-quarter inches in diameter,
with the word "Virginia" across the face; in the exergue this
inscription "City of Charlottesville," and all of said words
shall be raised letters; the said design being the same as that
heretofore in use as the seal of the city. No other seal shall be
used for the City of Charlottesville, and no paper issued by municipal
authority, which requires the seal of the city, shall be
valid unless the seal prescribed above be duly affixed thereto.

The Mayor shall be the custodian of the corporate seal of
the city, and shall affix it to such papers or documents as he may
be required to affix it by any ordinance or resolution of the
Council.
