If the electors at the annual township meeting fail in any year to levy any tax for general assistance to persons needing that assistance, or a tax for general assistance of an amount sufficient to meet those needs, or a tax of an amount sufficient to qualify the township for an allocation of State funds appropriated for that purpose, the electors may levy the tax, additional tax, or qualifying tax, as the case may be, as may be necessary. In no event, however, shall the total of the taxes levied at the annual and special township meetings for general assistance exceed the statutory rate limit prescribed in Section 235-15.
