Pursuant to the provisions of Section 21107.5 of the Vehicle Code of the State of California the City Council hereby declares that the provisions of this title and the Vehicle Code of the State of California shall apply to the aforementioned privately owned and maintained streets unless there is posted on such a road a notice of such size, shape and color as to be readily legible during the 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, regulation and control. The City Council further finds and determines, that so long as the streets are not so posted, that it shall provide traffic law enforcement on said streets and that said streets shall be subject to all the provisions of this Chapter and the Vehicle Code of the State of California and except as herein provided the City shall not be deemed to assume any responsibility or liability for the maintenance or care of the privately owned and maintained streets.
