§ 902. Assessing damages
In the event that the Village and any owner of land over which it may be desirable
to pass with the poles and wires of the plants, or of land, water power, or rights-of-way,
which it may need for the construction and operation of the plant, cannot agree upon
the damages to be paid to the owner for the passage or right-of-way, or for the land
or water power, or if the owner be a minor or out of the State, or a person who lacks
capacity to protect the person’s interests due to a mental condition or psychiatric
disability, or otherwise incapable to sell and convey the real estate or rights in
the real estate, the same proceedings shall be had for assessing damages as are provided
in section 302 of this charter, for compensating the owners of land taken for the
construction and maintenance of a sewer or main drain, for the Village. (Amended 2013, No. 96 (Adj. Sess.), § 168; 2023, No. 6, § 308, eff. July 1, 2023.)
