§ Ind. Code § 3-11-1.5-3.2Petition for waiver of limitation on number of voters; expiration

(a) A county executive may file a petition with the election division requesting
the commission to waive the requirements imposed by section 3 of this chapter. The petition
must:
(1) identify each precinct to be subject to the waiver;
(2) state the number of voters that would be included in each precinct described in
subdivision (1) if the waiver is granted; and
(3) state the reasons why the waiver should be granted.
(b) If the commission determines that compliance with the requirements of section 3 of
this chapter would result in unnecessary expense and inconvenience for the county, the
commission may grant a waiver exempting some or all of the precincts identified in the
petition from section 3 of this chapter.
(c) A waiver granted for a precinct under this section expires when the county executive
submits a subsequent proposed precinct establishment order for that precinct.
