At the hearing, the board of trustees shall hear and consider any protests to the formation of a zone pursuant to this article. The board of trustees shall terminate the proceedings, if, at the conclusion of the hearing, it determines either of the following:

More than 50 percent of the total number of voters residing within the proposed zone have filed written objections to the formation.

Property
owners who own more than 50 percent of the assessed value of all taxable property within the proposed zone have filed written objections to the formation.
