In not less than thirty nor more than ninety days after the passage of the resolution
referred to in section 4957.02 of the Revised Code , the legislative authority of a municipal corporation or the board of county commissioners
shall determine whether it will proceed with the proposed improvement. If it is decided to proceed with the improvement, an ordinance by the legislative
authority or resolution by the board shall be passed, which ordinance or resolution
must contain, in addition to the conditions stated in such resolution, the plans and
specifications of the proposed alteration and improvement, a statement of the damages
claimed or likely to accrue by reason of it, how the payment of such damages is to
be apportioned between the municipal corporation or county and the railroad company,
and who shall supervise the work of construction. Upon the acceptance of this resolution or ordinance by resolution by the company
through its board of directors, it shall constitute an agreement, valid and binding
on the municipal corporation or county and the company respectively. Such agreement shall be filed in the court of common pleas of the county in which
the crossing is located for entry upon its records, whereupon it shall have the same
effect as a decree of the court.
