56. If the council of the municipality in which the territory which it is proposed to annex is located approves the by-law within 30 days after the clerk receives it, he shall immediately so notify the council of the municipality seeking the annexation; the secretary-treasurer of that municipality shall then cause to be published once a week for two consecutive weeks, in a newspaper circulating in the municipality where the territory which it is proposed to annex is located, a notice inviting the persons concerned to make their views known on the by-law.
The consultation shall be held in accordance with the procedure provided in article 1061, mutatis mutandis, and the persons qualified to vote for such purposes are those referred to in article 59. However, the date provided for the meeting must not be less than 20 nor more than 25 days after the date of the last publication, and the place where the meeting is held must be located in the municipality where the territory which it is proposed to annex is located.
