(2) post notice for at least two weeks at a reasonable number of conspicuous places within the appropriate area, including, if possible, public places where it is customary to post notices concerning county or municipal affairs generally.

(b) A hearing for which notice is given under this section and which is held at the time and place designated in the notice may be adjourned from time to time without renewing notice for the adjourned dates.
