(a) If a resident of this state intends to apply for passage of a law that will primarily affect persons and will not directly affect a particular locality more than it will affect another, the person applying for passage must publish notice in a newspaper published in the county in which the person resides in the same manner as if the law will affect the locality.
(b) If the applicant is not a resident of this state, publication of notice in a newspaper published in Austin is sufficient.
