A BILL
TO AMEND ACT 340 OF 1967, AS AMENDED, RELATING TO
THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE CHARLESTON SCHOOL
DISTRICT AND THE MANNER IN WHICH THE ANNUAL TAX
MILLAGE FOR THE DISTRICT IS DETERMINED, SO AS TO
REVISE THIS PROCEDURE INCLUDING PROVISIONS TO

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:
SECTION 1. Section 10 of Act 340 of 1967, as last amended by
Act 1602 of 1972, is further amended to read:
"Section 10. The Board of Trustees of the Charleston School
District shall prepare and submit to the Charleston County
Legislative Delegation Council, as information, on or
before the fifteenth day of August of each year beginning in
1968 a proposed budget for the ensuing school year. In order to
obtain funds for school purposes the board is authorized to impose an
annual tax levy, commencing in 1968, not to exceed ninety
mills, exclusive of any millage imposed for bond debt service. In the
event the board determines that the annual tax levy should exceed
ninety mills, the board shall hold a public hearing on the question at
least two weeks prior to submitting such the request
to the legislative delegation county council. Notice of
such the public hearing shall must be
advertised in a newspaper of general circulation in the county, and
shall state the date, time, and place of the hearing as well as
a clearly worded statement of the requested annual tax levy. Upon
certification by the board to the county auditor of the tax levy to be
imposed the auditor shall levy and the county treasurer shall collect
the millage so certified upon all taxable property in the district. A
tax levy for any year exceeding ninety mills must be approved by
county council by ordinance."
SECTION 2. This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
