Section 55. Change from one alternative form of county government to another

A  county  operating  under  an  alternative  form  of  county
  government  may,  after the lapse of three years from the date such form
  becomes effective in the county, abandon  its  then  existing  form  and
  adopt  another  alternative form of county government authorized by this
  chapter, and such change shall become effective at the time provided  in
  subdivision  five  of  section  six  hundred fifty-six. No such question
  shall be submitted more often than once in every four years. All of  the
  provisions  of  this chapter relating to initiating a proceeding for the
  adoption of  an  alternative  form  of  county  government  and  to  the
  submission  and  approval  of  the question shall apply also to a change
  from one alternative form of county government to another as  authorized
  in  this  section.  The question shall be in substantially the following
  form: "Shall the county of (name of county) abandon its present form  of
  county government and adopt the (name of form) of government?"
