(a) Before a district may undertake a freight or commuter rail project that materially affects the tracks, facilities, or other property of a railroad that owns track in the district, the district and railroad must enter into a written agreement regarding the scope, operational impact, financing, and other elements of the project. The district may not undertake the project unless the district and the railroad agree on these terms.
(b) The agreement may include provisions for the railroad's financial participation in the project according to the benefits the railroad derives from the project.
