Text

Section 297.22 shall be construed as independent of the power vested in the electors
by section 278.1, and as additional to such power. If a board of directors has exercised
its independent power under section 297.22 regarding the disposition of real or personal
property of the school district and has by resolution approved such action, the electors may
subsequently proceed to exercise their power under section 278.1 for a purpose directly
contrary to an action previously approved by the board of directors in accordance with
section 297.22. However, the electors shall be limited to ten days after an action by the board
to exercise such power for a purpose directly contrary to the board’s action.
