Correction

In the article "Municipal employees in North Port, Fla., learn Ukrainian" (September 3), it was incorrectly noted that North Port is the state's third largest city. According to the city's website: North Port is 103 square miles, making it "one of the largest Florida cities in land area," and its population growth makes it "one of the fastest growing cities in Florida." North Port's population grew from 22,797 in 2000 (U.S. Census) to 35,721 in 2005 (University of Florida Bureau of Economic and Business Research) - an increase of 57 percent.
