activities that require access to the railroad.
Further, by this Resolution the City Council

that PUD and attached to this new PUD, which is
technically a zoning amendment. The change is
consistent with plans recommended for approval

presented to the C-O-W and is being brought to
the C-O-W because of this updated language
reflecting the technical rezoning. It is
