Sec. 5. The rates of ferriage, reasonable rules for operation, and the schedule upon which the ferry shall be operated shall be fixed by the legislative body at the time of licensing the ferry, and from time to time thereafter as the body shall think proper. A list of rates, rules, and schedules shall be posted at one (1) or more conspicuous places on each ferryboat and at the place of landing. If the ferrykeeper, or any user of the ferry, is aggrieved by the establishing of the rates, rules, or schedules, the ferrykeeper or user shall have the right to appeal to the circuit court, superior court, or probate court of the proper county upon filing a bond, within thirty (30) days after the fixing of the rates, payable to the state, with security to be approved by the court, and conditioned for the due prosecution of the appeal, and the payment of all costs if judgment is rendered against the appellant. Upon appeal, the circuit court, superior court, or probate court shall have the power to review the rates of ferriage, rules, or schedules and fix the rates, rules, or schedules as may be just and proper.
