19-2876c. Same; approval of electors for increased levy required;
submission of proposal.
The board of commissioners of the Johnson county recreation district
shall not levy the additional one-half (1/2) mill authorized in this act
by the amendment to K.S.A. 19-2876, until the same shall have
been submitted to and approved by the qualified electors of the
district. The question of whether said board shall be authorized to levy
the additional tax may be submitted to the qualified electors of the
district at a general election or at a special election for such
purpose, to be noticed, called and held in the manner provided for the
giving of notice, calling and holding elections upon the question of
issuance of bonds under the general bond law. If a majority of the votes
cast and counted on such proposition at any such election are in favor
thereof, the board may levy such additional tax.
It shall be the duty of the board to determine whether such
proposition shall be submitted at a general or special election, as
provided herein, and to give notice thereof to the county election
officer. If such proposition is submitted at a special election, the
laws relating to questions submitted at special elections, including
payment of the expenses thereof, shall govern said election.
