   See. 133.06. (A) A school district shall not incur, without a vote of the electors, net

except as provided in divisions (G) and (H) of this section and in division (D) of section
3313.372 of the Revised Code, or as prescribed in section 3318.052 or 3318.44 of the Revised

securities in an amount that will make the district's net indebtedness after the issuance of the
securities exceed an amount equal to four per cent of its tax valuation, unless the superintendent

a new request for consent. If the school district seeks to submit the same question at any other
