Sec. 56.
The County Airport Commission may combine its request for
any two or all of the means of financing the proposed undertaking in a
single resolution if it deems it necessary and desirable to do so, and
in case such request covers the levying of a tax and the issuance of
bonds with the levy of an additional tax to pay principal and interest
thereon, the proposition shall be in substantially the following form:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Airports Shall an annual tax of (here insert rate) mill(s) on the dollar of all the taxable property of (here YES name County) be levied for airport purposes and shall county bonds for airport ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- purposes be issued to the amount of $........ and an additional tax levied for the payment of interest and NO principal of such bonds all as specified in "County Airport Commission Request"?---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If the county board within 65 days after the receipt of a request or
requests as aforesaid, does not act favorably upon a request or its
alternate, the resolution accompanying such request shall be considered
in full force and effect and to the same extent as if it were adopted by
the county board, when a petition has been filed in the office of the
county clerk signed by 10% of the voters of such county, provided the
petition states that it is the desire of the signers thereof that the
resolution accompanying County Airport Commission Request --, become
effective.
No request shall be withdrawn by the Commission for a period of 90
days following the transmittal thereof to the county board, nor after
the adoption of the resolution by the county board or by petition as
herein provided. All such resolutions shall be without effect unless
adopted within 18 months after being presented to the county board. The
same question shall be submitted to a vote only once in each calendar
year.
