A special election for that purpose shall be held not later than sixty (60) days after the filing of such protest, or at a regular city election or general election, which shall occur not less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days after the filing of such protest. At least ten (10) days' notice shall be given for such election. If a majority of electors voting on such proposition at such election shall vote in favor thereof, such acquisition, construction, alteration, repair, improvement, extension or enlargement of such airport shall be made and such bonds may be issued to pay the costs thereof.
