Section 215

Section 215. If the charter commission shall recommend that the question of adopting one of the optional forms of government authorized by this act shall be submitted to the voters of the city, it shall be the duty of the city clerk, within five days thereafter, to certify a copy of the commission's report to the county election board, which shall cause the question of adoption or rejection to be placed upon the ballot or voting machines at such time as the commission shall in its report specify. The commission may cause the question to be submitted to the people at the next general or municipal election, occurring not less than sixty days following the filing of a copy of the commission's report with the county board of elections, or at a special election occurring not less than sixty days or more than one hundred twenty days after the filing of the report, at such time as the commission's report shall direct. At such election, the question of adopting that form of government recommended by the charter commission shall be submitted to the voters of the city by the county board of elections in the same manner as other questions are submitted to the voters of a city under the provisions of the Pennsylvania Election Code. The charter commission shall frame the question to be placed upon the ballot as herein provided, and if it deems appropriate an interpretative statement to accompany such question.
