1. Whenever a petition signed by 15 percent of the qualified electors of the city, as they appear from the registration list of qualified electors at the last preceding city election for city officers, is presented to the legislative body of that city, praying that the special charter may be surrendered, and that the city is to be organized pursuant to the provisions of this chapter, the city council shall submit the question at the next primary or general municipal election or primary or general state election.
2. If a majority of the votes cast at the election are for city organization pursuant to this chapter, the city shall, on the date the results of the election are declared, be deemed to have surrendered its charter and to be organized pursuant to this chapter.
