Municipalities may enact regulations in accordance with their
normal executive or legislative procedures to provide for prohibitions
or limitations on the use of municipally owned properties located
outside of municipal corporate boundaries. Such regulations if approved
by resolution by the County Commissioners, if conspicuously posted
on the property shall become County regulations and enforceable as
such and a violation thereof shall constitute a civil infraction;
provided, however, that any such regulation may be preempted by County
law, resolution, regulation or other action.
