Sec. 2. (a) The persons involved shall negotiate the terms for connection and service under this chapter.

(b) If service is ordered under this chapter, a receiver of that service that is located in an unincorporated area may grant a waiver to a municipality providing the service. A waiver under this section:

(2) may be one (1) of the terms for connection and service described in subsection (a).

(c) The waiver, if granted:

(1) shall be noted on the deed of each property affected and recorded as provided by law; and

(2) is considered a covenant running with the land.

(d) 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.

(1) The waiver is void unless the waiver was recorded:

(A) before January 1, 2020; and

(B) with the county recorder of the county where the property subject to the waiver is located.

(2) A waiver that is not void under subdivision (1) expires not later than fifteen (15) years after the date the waiver is executed.

This subsection does not invalidate an annexation that was effective on or before July 1, 2019.
