A. On filing the petition prescribed in section 28-6701, the board of supervisors shall:

1. Direct the county engineer to make a survey of the proposed highway and to file with the board a report of the proposed highway and a map as surveyed that shows the legal subdivision of the lands traversed by the survey.

The notice shall state the purpose and the date of the hearing and shall direct all persons desiring to object to the action requested in the recommendation or petition to file with the board of supervisors a statement in writing setting forth their objection or opposition, and to show cause why the recommendation or petition should not be granted.

B. On receipt of a recommendation by the county engineer pursuant to section 28-6701, the board of supervisors shall comply with subsection A, paragraphs 2 and 3 of this section.
