7. (a) Any member of the county food and
beverage tax council may present an ordinance to rescind the food and
beverage tax. To do so, the member must adopt a resolution to propose
the ordinance to the county food and beverage tax council and
distribute a copy of the proposed ordinance to the auditor of the county.
The county auditor shall treat an ordinance presented to the county
auditor as a casting of all that member's votes in favor of the proposed
ordinance. The county auditor shall deliver copies of a proposed
ordinance to all other members of the county food and beverage tax
council within ten (10) days after receipt by the county auditor. A
member shall vote on the proposed ordinance within thirty (30) days
after receiving the proposed ordinance from the county auditor. If a
member does not vote within thirty (30) days, the county auditor shall
treat the member as having voted no on the proposed ordinance.
(b) A member of the county food and beverage tax council may
exercise the member's votes by passing a resolution and transmitting
the resolution to the county auditor. A resolution passed by a member
of the county food and beverage tax council exercises all votes of the
member on the proposed ordinance. Those votes may not be changed
during the year.
(c) Before a member of the county food and beverage tax council
may propose an ordinance or vote on a proposed ordinance to rescind
the food and beverage tax, the member must hold a public hearing on
the proposed ordinance and provide the public with notice of the time
and place where the hearing will be held in accordance with IC 5-3-1.
(d) The county auditor shall record all votes taken on a proposed
ordinance presented for a vote under this section and immediately send
a certified copy of the results to the department of state revenue by
certified mail.
