(1) a complete legal description of the area included in the proposed project;
(2) a statement of the nature of the proposed project;
(3) a statement of the total amount of fee revenue anticipated to be spent on the proposed project; and
(4) the amount of the fee to be imposed.
(c) The ballot proposition at the election need not contain a complete legal description of the area included in the proposed project, but the proposition must contain a general description of the area that is sufficient to give notice to the voters of the location of the proposed project. The ballot proposition must also contain the information described by Subsections (b)(2), (3), and (4).

If the district desires to expand the project beyond those limitations, the proposed expansion must be approved at an election in the manner provided for the original project.
(e) If a majority of the voters voting at the election do not approve the ballot proposition, the district may not call a subsequent election under this section on the imposition of a fee for the same proposed project before the first anniversary of the date of the most recent election held under this section on the imposition of a fee for the same proposed project.
