Sec. 14. (a) A county executive must submit a proposed precinct establishment order to the co-directors before the county executive establishes a precinct under this chapter.
(b) To ensure sufficient time for review to determine whether a proposed precinct establishment order complies with this chapter, the co-directors may fix a date and time by which a county executive must submit an order under section 15 of this chapter if the county wishes to have the proposed order take effect before the beginning of the next period specified under section 25 of this chapter. The election division shall notify each county election board of the date fixed under this subsection at least ninety (90) days before the date occurs.
(c) If a county submits an order after the date and time fixed under subsection (b), the co-directors may review the order only after completing the review of orders submitted in compliance with subsection (b).
(d) This subsection applies to an order submitted after the date and time fixed under subsection (b). If the co-directors are unable to determine whether a proposed order complies with this chapter before the beginning of the next period specified under section 25 of this chapter, the co-directors shall complete the review so that, if the proposed order is otherwise approved under this chapter, the order may take effect following the end of the next period specified under section 25 of this chapter.
