The board of county commissioners of any county, in any year, after providing the
normal and customary percentage of the total general fund appropriations for the support
of the tuberculosis treatment specified under section 339.73 of the Revised Code or for the support of tuberculosis clinics established pursuant to section 339.76 of the Revised Code , by vote of two-thirds of all the members of said board may declare by resolution

appropriations for such purpose, but the total levy for this purpose shall not exceed

at the additional rate in excess of the ten-mill limitation during the period and
for the purpose stated in the resolution or at any less rate or for any of said years. If a tax was levied under this section for the support of tuberculosis clinics before
October 10, 2000, the levy may be renewed for that purpose on or after October 10,
