For the purposes of the referendum, each owner shall have 1 vote for each room in each of the owner's transient facilities within the petitioning assessment district.

(3) If a referendum is conducted under subsection (1) and if a resolution to discontinue the assessment is not adopted, a further referendum on the discontinuation of that assessment for the assessment district for which the referendum was held shall not be held for a period of 2 years.
