Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:

Second election

SECTION 1. Act 239 of 1981 is amended by adding:

"Section 6A. For the fiscal year 1986-87 only, the Board of Trustees for Florence School District No. 1 may call for a second election requesting the electors of the district to approve an increase in the millage rate to fund the operational budget of the district. To call for this second election, the board shall file with the county auditor its proposed budget on or before July 1, 1986. The board shall call for a second election to approve the proposed increase by setting the election date which must be not later than August 5, 1986. Notice of the election date must be advertised at least one week prior to the election day. The election must be conducted by the Florence County Election Commission in the same manner as other school district elections. In the event the proposed millage increase is not approved by a majority of the electors voting, then the authorized millage is limited to the millage in effect for the previous fiscal year."

Time effective

SECTION 2. This act shall take effect upon approval by the Governor.
