If the stated price of the building or site is less than the fair market value of the property as determined by the most recent township assessment, the board of managers shall approve the submission of the proposition to the proper election officials before the electors of the township may vote on the sale of the property. (b) The proposition at the referendum shall be substantially as follows: Shall the Board of Managers of (name of township) sell to (name and number of school district or name of municipality) the following described property for the sum of $(amount), and shall the proceeds be transferred to (name of township fund)? (Description of property.) The votes shall be recorded as "Yes" or "No".

(d) Upon the completion of the sale, the board of managers shall immediately settle all outstanding obligations against the community building and pay over any moneys pertaining to the building remaining in their hands to the proper authorities in accordance with the proposition and election. (e) If the building so disposed of was the only community building under their care and management, no new member of the board of managers shall be elected nor shall any community building maintenance tax be levied and collected in the township.
