The board of county commissioners of any newly created county may, at any time within 6 months after the date at which the law creating the county shall become effective, issue interest-bearing time warrants in an aggregate sum not exceeding the amount of one half of 1 percent of the total tax assessed valuation of such county; provided, that where such time warrants shall come within the purview of Fla. Const. Art. VII, § 12, the said time warrants shall be issued only after the same shall have been approved by the majority of the votes cast in an election in which a majority of the owners of freeholds not wholly exempt from taxation who are qualified electors residing in such county, shall participate, which said election shall be called and held, and the result thereof declared and recorded, in the manner prescribed by chapter 102, and said election shall be subject to all the provisions of said chapter.
