1. Be it enacted by the general assembly of Virginia, That
the circuit court of Albemarle county shall order an election to
be held in said county on the Tuesday succeeding the first Mon-
day in November, nineteen hundred and seventeen for the pur-
pose of permitting the duly qualified voters of said county to
determine whether there should be a road commission for said
county.

2.. The said election shall be held by the regular election
officials and a separate ballot box shall be provided at each pre-
cinct for the ballots upon the said question; upon which ballots
shall be printed the words “For Road Commission”; “Against
Road Commission”. Said ballots shall be printed, distributed,
marked, cast, counted and canvassed in the same manner as in
the case of election upon the question of the issue of bonds for
a county.

3. If a majority of the voters voting at said election shall
erase the words “Against Road Commission” upon said ballots,
the circuit court of the said county shall certify the fact to the
members of the house of delegates for said county, chosen at
said election, who shall prepare and introduce at the session of
the general assembly convening in the month of January, nine-
teen hundred and eighteen, such measure or measures as shall
provide for such road commission.

4. All acts and parts of acts inconsistent with this act are
hereby repealed.
