The limitation of debt and tax rates without vote of the electors shall be continued as provided in the Ohio Constitution and general law. No ordinance for the levy of an income tax in excess of one percent (1%) shall be effective without having obtained approval of the excess by a majority of the electors voting on the question at a general, primary or special election. Council shall file with the Board of Elections at least sixty (60) days before the day of the election a copy of the ordinance levying the tax, together with a resolution specifying the date the election is to be held and directing the Board of Elections to conduct the election.
