If the election for a tax levy as set out in Section 55-19-7 fails in any of the four (4) counties in which a part of the Bienville Recreational District lies, then that county is no longer a member, and the clerk of the board of supervisors of that county shall so advise the governor and the secretary of state of its removal. Since each of the four (4) said counties is essential to the district, the district shall be dissolved automatically upon the removal of any one (1) of such counties. However, the district may maintain the organization outlined in Section 55-19-5 for a period of two (2) years after such dissolution but its activities shall be limited to that of perfecting a district with four (4) permanent member counties.
