of election laws.
The board of commissioners of the Johnson county park and recreation
district shall not levy the tax authorized by K.S.A. 19-2881a 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 tax may be submitted to the qualified
electors of the district at a general election or at a special election
to be noticed, called and held for such purpose 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 the proposition at any such election
are in favor thereof, the board may levy such 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.
