1. To meet the further expenses to be incurred under the provisions of the act to which this [is] a further supplement, for the acquisition, development and improvement of parks and parkways, in any county in this state in which said act shall or may be in force and in which the sum limited in said act and in any supplement thereto shall have been already appropriated, the board of chosen freeholders of the said county shall from time to time, on the requisition of the said board of park commissioners, in the name and on the credit of the said county, borrow money by issuing the bonds of the said county to a sum not exceeding, in the aggregate three hundred thousand dollars over and above the total amount theretofore issued, such bonds to run for a term not exceeding fifty years, to bear interest at a rate not exceeding four per cent, payable semiannually; such bonds shall not be sold or disposed of at less than their par value, and may be made payable at any place which the said board of chosen freeholders may determine, and they shall also determine the form of the bond. A sinking fund shall be established by the said board of chosen freeholders on the issuing of any such bonds sufficient, with the accumulation thereof, to extinguish the principal of the said bonds so issued, when due. The interest and principal of the bonds issued under the authority of this act shall be the debt or obligation of the county wherein they are issued, and the payment thereof shall be provided for by taxation in the same manner that other debts and obligations of the county are provided for by taxation. The proceeds of the sale of said bonds, after deducting expenses for negotiating the same, and for engraving and all other expenses connected with the issue and sale, shall be paid over to the said park commission; provided, however, that the board of chosen freeholders shall not be governed by the provisions hereof in any county of this state until after the approval of this act by a majority of the votes cast at a general election, which shall be held in such county upon the question of the approval of this act, which question shall be submitted to the voters of such county, in the manner provided by law, wherever a request in writing for such submission shall have been filed with the county clerk of such county at least thirty days before the day of such general election by the commission, board or other authority having the control and maintenance of the county parks.
