  1  5 a tax at the rate voted not to exceed fifty-four cents per
  1  6 thousand dollars of assessed value in any one year for the
  1  7 erection and equipment of the hospital, and also a tax not to
  1  8 exceed twenty-seven cents per thousand dollars of value for
  1  9 the improvement, maintenance, and replacements of the
  1 10 hospital, as certified by the board of hospital trustees.
  1 11 However, in counties having a population of two hundred

  1 15 the hospital shall not exceed one dollar two dollars and
  1 16 seventy-five five cents per thousand dollars of assessed value

  1 22 public hospital fund of the county which are unappropriated,
  1 23 may use the unappropriated funds for erecting and equipping
  1 24 hospital buildings and additions thereto without authority
  1 25 from the voters of the county.
  1 26    Sec. 2.  This Act, being deemed of immediate importance,
  1 27 takes effect upon enactment.
