§ 21.14-1411. Results of Election.
A. Initiative. If a majority of the qualified electors voting on a proposed Initiative ordinance vote in its favor, it shall be considered adopted upon certification of the election results and shall be treated in all respects in the same manner as ordinances of the same kind adopted by the Board. If conflicting ordinances are approved at the same election, the one receiving the greatest number of affirmative votes shall prevail to the extent of such conflict.
B. Referendum. If a majority of the qualified electors voting on a referred ordinance vote against it, it shall be considered repealed upon certification of the election results.
C. The Board may not rescind or repeal an ordinance approved at such Initiative election, nor may it enact an ordinance which has been repealed or rescinded at such Referendum election, for at least two years following certification of the vote thereon, unless the Board shall determine that such official action is required by a substantial change in circumstances.
