Within 10 days after receiving notice of verification, the railroad company may file a written appeal of the director’s action with the city manager. In support of its appeal, the railroad company may submit engineering data and accident reports for the tracks concerned. The city manager shall, within 10 days after the appeal is filed, consider all the evidence in support of or against the action appealed, and render a decision either sustaining or reversing the action. If the city manager sustains the action, the railroad company may within 10 days of that decision file a written appeal with the city secretary to the city council setting forth specific grounds for the appeal. Within 30 days the city council shall hear the appeal. The city council may affirm, modify, or reverse the action appealed. Until a final determination is made by the city council, the speed limit before or after verification, whichever is lower, shall be in effect. The decision of the city council is final. (Ord. 18100)
