(1) A resolution shall not be enacted pursuant to this section without a public hearing thereon and ten days' prior written notice to the owner of the privately owned and maintained road involved.
(2) An enacted resolution shall not apply to any road described therein on which the owner has caused to be erected a notice of such size, shape and color as to be readily legible during daylight hours from a distance of one hundred feet, to the effect that the road is privately owned and maintained and that it is not subject to public traffic regulations or control.
(3) The police department shall not be required to patrol or enforcement of any provisions of the Vehicle Code on any privately owned and maintained road subject to the provisions of the Vehicle Code under this section, except those provisions applicable to private property other than by action under this section.
