chapter to any property owner unless such owner objects to such
omission within 30 days after the public hearing or initial action

property owner entitled to a mailed notice under this chapter who has
not been mailed such notice, has filed the objection herein
authorized. The affidavit of the clerk shall be conclusive evidence
