(a) On petition of not less than 20% of the adult resident population of the project district area by the last federal decennial or municipal census, a governing body, after public hearing with notice given in accordance with section 17, 1 and by a 2/3 vote, may adopt a resolution for the project to eliminate the necessity of a project citizens district council.
(b) When there are less than 18 residents, real property owners, or representatives of establishments located in the project district area eligible to serve on the project citizens district council.

During that period, the governing body shall consult with the project citizens district council concerning the objections of the project citizens district council to the determination.
