35-8-204. Bond issue; submission of issue to voters.

No bonds shall be issued for the purpose provided by this article until the proposition to issue the same shall have been submitted to a vote of the qualified electors of the city or town, and by them approved. The proposition shall be submitted at an election called, conducted, canvassed and returned in the manner provided for bond elections by the Political Subdivision Bond Election Law, W.S. 22-21-101 through 22-21-112. The proposition so submitted to a vote of the qualified electors shall specify the amount of the bonds proposed to be issued, the rate of interest, and the purpose for which it is proposed to issue the same. It shall be the duty of the city clerk of the city or town to cause ballots to be prepared, either separately from other ballots in case of a special election, or upon other ballots in case of a primary or general election, with the words "for cemetery bonds" and "against cemetery bonds", leaving a place opposite each proposition in which the voter shall mark his vote for or against the bonds. If, upon a canvass of the votes upon such proposition, a majority of the votes be for the issue of the bonds, then the mayor and city council are authorized to issue same as provided in this act.
