Whenever an application is made to the board of supervisors for an order, franchise, or license relating to any road, bridge, ferry, wharf, chute, pier, or other subject over which the board has jurisdiction in which a majority of the board are interested, the application by order of the board shall be transferred to the superior court of the county. The clerk of the board shall thereupon certify the application and all orders and papers relating thereto to the superior court. Thereafter the superior court has full jurisdiction to hear and determine the application.
