Reports of viewers; order to erect or construct fence
Sec. 2. (a) After having performed the duties required under
section 1 of this chapter, the viewers shall, as soon as practicable,
submit a report in writing to the board of county commissioners of
the viewers' actions and a tabular statement of the viewers'
assessment. The report submitted under this section is sufficient
authority for the board of county commissioners to issue an order for
the erection or construction of the fence and gates if there is no
remonstrance against the erection of the fence and gates.
(b) If a remonstrance is made under subsection (a), the board of
county commissioners may order or refuse to order the erection of
the fence or gate, in the board's discretion.
(c) If the order under subsection (a) is not made because of a
mistake or error committed by the viewers, other viewers may be
appointed to perform the same service and submit a report.
