§1508. Limitation of authority to levy fire service charge without vote of electorate; 1992 Regular Session
A. Notwithstanding any Act of the 1992 Regular Session of the Legislature, no governing authority of a fire protection district manned with any volunteer fireman may, solely by majority vote of the authority, without approval by a vote of the electorate of the district, levy a fire service charge of more than one dollar for each housing unit within a hotel or motel. Further, for the purposes of levying any fire service charge authorized by any Act of the 1992 Regular Session without approval by a vote of the electorate of the district, no residential unit within a structure or individual housing unit within a multiple dwelling structure may be considered a separate structure, rather the entire structure containing the residence or housing unit shall be considered as one structure.
B. This Section shall supersede any Act of the 1992 Regular Session of the Legislature to the extent that the provisions of this Section conflict with the provisions of such Act.
Acts 1992, No. 610, §2, eff. July 2, 1992.
