At any regular or special meeting a board of county road commissioners may, by resolution, tentatively designate a road, or a number of
roads, as seasonal roads and set a date for a public hearing. A copy of the resolution shall be forwarded to the department. In exercising its discretion, the board shall consider at least all of the following:
(a) The volume of motor vehicle traffic that uses the particular road during the months of November through April.
(b) Whether or not there are any buildings along the particular road that are being used as a principal residence during the months of November through April.
(c) The grade variations, concealed obstructions, road alignment, or other topographical characteristics of the particular road which would increase the likelihood of damaging snow removal equipment or necessitate the use of equipment not normally used by that road commission for winter maintenance.
