(b)  (1) An ordinance pledging revenues under subsection (a) of this section is not effective unless the issuance of the bonds is approved by a majority of the electors of the municipality or county voting on the question at an election that is held substantially in the manner provided under § 14-164-309.  (2) The ballot form in an election to issue bonds secured by the pledge of revenues under subsection (a) of this section shall contain a statement describing the extent to which the municipality's or county's share of collections of the temporary one-half percent (½%) sales and use tax levied under Arkansas Constitution, Amendment 91, may be pledged to the retirement of the bonds issued for the surface transportation project if the bonds are approved by the voters of the municipality or county.    (c) Bonds issued under this section shall not have a final maturity date later than July 1, 2023.  (d) A certified copy of the ordinance authorizing the issuance of bonds under this section shall be filed with the Secretary of the Department of Finance and Administration and the Treasurer of State as soon as practicable after the approval of the issuance of the bonds by the voters.
