The clerk shall endorse on the protest the date of delivery to him. The protests so delivered and endorsed, if sufficient, are a bar to further proceedings in making the improvement for six months from the date the protest is filed, unless the owners of one-half or more of the frontage meanwhile petition for the work to be done. No portion of the improvement included in any proceeding barred by the protest may be included in any new proceeding within six months from the date of filing the protest, unless the owners of one-half or more of the property fronting on such portion petition for the work to be included in the new proceeding.

The objections shall show the amount of frontage owned by each signer and his post office address.
