The board of county commissioners of any county having a population of more than 300,000 is hereby authorized to levy an annual tax for not to exceed two years in an amount not to exceed 4/10 mill upon all of the taxable tangible property of the county for the purpose of providing funds for the operation and maintenance of a coliseum and to pay a portion of the principal and interest on bonds issued under the authority of K.S.A. 12-1774, and amendments thereto, by cities located in the county. No tax levy shall be made under the provisions of this section until the board of county commissioners shall have published a resolution authorizing such tax once each week for three consecutive weeks in the official county newspaper. If within 60 days following the last publication of said resolution, a petition in opposition to the levy, signed by not less than 5% of the qualified electors of the county, is filed with the county election officer, no such tax shall be levied unless a majority of the electors voting on the question of levying the tax shall approve the same at the next general election.
