a constituent district may, by resolution, apply to the county superintendent of schools
to make an investigation as to the advisability of withdrawal of such local district
from the regional district. A majority of the boards of education of the school districts which constitute a limited
purpose regional school district and a majority of the governing bodies of the municipalities
which constitute the constituent school districts of a limited purpose regional school

district. Within 21 days following adoption of the resolution or resolutions required pursuant
to this section, the county superintendent shall call a meeting of representatives
of each constituent governing body, each board of education constituting part of the
