XML Encoding issues...or something

Having some issues with a project I've been working on...hoping someone can help. Some of this was done by someone else and not sure what happend in the end to 'break' it. Just wishing this project would go away.

here's the site:
http://www.metagraphical.com/boca

Basically the list on the left is controlled by an XML file, but the main headings don't work when I put spaces in them. I had it working awhile ago I had it working by putting ALT-160(non breaking backspace) but then the client edited everything to add the rest of the buildings and apparently something else has changed but I'm not sure what. All I know is I need to put a space in the words and alt-160 with my last attempt at fixxing it now gives me the a with a squigley line on top.

Would appreciate any advice... I'm guessing it has to do with either this line at the top of the xml file:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>

or these lines at the top of the html file:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
