1. (a) After the last concurrent resolution under section 5 of this chapter is adopted, notice of the adoption of the concurrent resolutions shall be given by stating:

   1. (1) the substance of the concurrent resolutions;
   2. (2) that the resolutions have been adopted; and

   3. (3) that a right of remonstrance exists as provided in this chapter.

      It is not necessary to set out the remonstrance provisions of the statute, but a general reference to the right of remonstrance with a reference to this chapter is sufficient.

2. (b) The notice under subsection (a) shall be made two (2) times, one

   1. (1) week apart in two (2) daily newspapers, published in the English language and of general circulation in the county. If there is only one
   2. (1) daily or weekly newspaper in the county, publication in that newspaper is sufficient.

3. (c) The merger shall take effect at the time provided in section 5 of this chapter unless, not more than thirty (30) days after the first publication of the notice, a remonstrance is filed in the circuit or superior court of the county by registered voters equal in number to at least ten percent (10%) of the registered voters of a school corporation in the county.
