Sec. 35. Termination of a program. A program may be terminated only by the submission of and approval of the issue in the form of a public question before the voters of the territory of the program at a regularly scheduled election in the same manner as the question of the creation of the program, as set forth in Section 15 of this Act. If a majority of the voters voting upon the question approve the termination of the program, as certified by the proper election authorities, the program shall conclude its business and cease operations within one year of the date on which the election containing the public question was held.
In terminating the program, the governing commission shall refund the remaining balance of the security fund, if any, after all potential liabilities have been satisfied, to the then current property taxpayers of all property within the territory of the commission in an equitable manner proportionate to the manner in which the security fund was raised.
