Section 1509 - Hearing of objections to order for alteration without consent1. Within ten days after making and filing such order the district superintendent shall give at least a week's notice in writing to the trustees of all districts affected by the proposed alterations, that at a specified time, and at a named place within the town in which one of the districts to be affected lies, he will hear the objections to the alteration.2. The trustees of any district to be affected by such order may request the supervisor and town clerk of each of the towns, within which such districts shall wholly or partly lie, to join with the district superintendent as a local board.3. At the time and place mentioned in the notice, such superintendent, with the supervisors and town clerks, if they shall attend and act, shall hear and decide the matter, and the decision shall be final unless duly appealed from. Such decision must either affirm or vacate such order, and must be filed with and recorded by the town clerk of the town in which the property to be transferred shall lie, and a tie vote shall be regarded a decision for the purposes of an appeal on the merits. Upon such appeal the commissioner of education may affirm, modify or vacate the order of the district superintendent or the action of the local board.4. A supervisor and town clerk shall be entitled each to one dollar and fifty cents a day for each day's service in any proceeding under this section, to be levied and paid as a charge upon their town.
