The Bettendorf, Iowa, City Council last week approved a $3 million agreement with Canada Pacific that would address noise and safety concerns if CP's merger with Kansas City Southern receives federal approval.
CP would pay the $3 million within 60 days of the Surface Transportation Board’s approval of the merger, the Quad-City Times reported last week. The merger plan is currently under the board’s review.
