3. (c) The waiver, if granted:

   1. (1) shall be noted on the deed of each property affected and recorded as provided by law; and
   2. (2) is considered a covenant running with the land.
4. (d) Notwithstanding any other law, a waiver of the right of remonstrance executed after June 30, 2015, expires not later than fifteen (15) years after the date the waiver was executed.

5. (e) This subsection applies to any deed recorded after June 30, 2015. This subsection applies only to property that is subject to a remonstrance waiver. A municipality shall, within a reasonable time after the recording of a deed to property located within the municipality, provide written notice to the property owner that a waiver of the right of remonstrance exists with respect to the property.
