Sec. 363.262. EFFECTIVE DATE OF TAX CHANGE. (a) If less than a majority of the votes cast in a continuation referendum are for the continuation of the district or if a majority of the votes cast in a dissolution referendum are for dissolution of the district, the board shall notify the comptroller in writing of the results of the referendum not later than the 10th day after the date the referendum returns are canvassed.
(b) If the district is to be dissolved as a result of the referendum, the abolition of the local crime control sales and use tax takes effect on the first day of the first calendar quarter that occurs after the expiration of the first complete calendar quarter that occurs after the comptroller receives a notice of the results of the continuation or dissolution referendum.
(c) If the comptroller determines that an effective date provided by Subsection (b) will occur before the comptroller can reasonably take the action required to implement abolition of the tax, the comptroller may extend the effective date until the final day of the succeeding calendar quarter.
