3. In addition to the fees imposed in section 59.319 and in subsection 2 of this section, in any county with a population over nine hundred thousand, a user fee of three dollars shall be charged and collected on all instruments recorded with the recorder of deeds, over and above any other fees required by law, as a condition precedent to the recording of any instrument, but such fee shall not become effective unless the governing body of the county submits to the voters of the county a proposal to authorize the county to impose such fee and a majority of the votes cast on the proposal are in favor of the proposal. If the proposal is approved, the fee shall be forwarded to the executive of the county for distribution to any agency, as defined in section 67.1062, which renovates or rehabilitates housing structures for the purpose of sale at market rates to market-rate buyers.
