(b) The legislative body of any city may consent to the inclusion within a permanent road division formed by a county of streets within the corporate limits of the city, and the board of supervisors of the county in which the city is located shall then have jurisdiction over all proceedings taken or to be taken under that Article 3 in the same manner and to the same extent as if the city streets were county roads.
(c) This section is an alternative to any other provision of law that provides for the construction or maintenance of city streets.
