Approve industry track agreement with BNSF railroad
In Plain English
The city needs a formal agreement with Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway to allow businesses to build railroad spurs connecting to the main rail line. This agreement sets the rules and safety standards for these connections. The city approved this part but delayed deciding on a separate reimbursement agreement about who pays for what costs.
