Notwithstanding any other provision of law, an election may not be called to vote on a petition to transfer territory if the election area for that petition, as determined pursuant to Section 35732, is uninhabited territory as described in Section 35517. The county committee, if it approves that petition, shall order that the petition be granted and shall notify the county board of supervisors.
