find and declare that there are privately owned and maintained roads
as described in the ordinance or resolution within the city or county
that are generally held open for use by the public for vehicular

shall apply to any road on which the owner has erected a notice of a
size, shape, and color as to be readily legible during daylight hours
from a distance of 100 feet to the effect that the road is privately
owned and maintained and that it is not subject to public traffic
regulations or control.
(c) No ordinance or resolution shall be enacted under subdivision
(a) without a public hearing after 10 days' written notice to the
owner of the privately owned and maintained road involved.
(d) The department is not required to provide patrol or enforce
any provision of this code on any privately owned and maintained
road, except those provisions applicable to private property, other
than pursuant to this section.
