The new EM law is referendum proof. One of the changes was adding an appropriation for the emergency managers salary to it. The appropriation prevents citizens from petitioning to have it overturned.

Also just because citizens don't want the law, doesn't mean the law isn't needed for the functioning of the state. At the end of the day, We still need a mechanism to deal with municipal entities that continually overspend their budgets.
