After a change of boundaries is made as provided by section 503.07 of the Revised Code, any township not having a municipal corporation remaining within its limits may be partitioned as provided in section 503.02 of the Revised Code. Unless and until a partition is made under that section, the remaining township territory shall remain intact.
