When it is desired that any real property in a development area be acquired by
condemnation, there shall be presented to the supervising agency by the
redevelopment corporation a verified petition requesting the issuance of a
certificate of approval of condemnation of such real property which shall
contain, among other things:
(a) A metes and bounds description or other legal description of the real
property involved and a statement of the estate, interest, privilege,
franchise or right therein or appurtenant thereto to be condemned;
(b) Proof that such real property is within the development area; and
(c) Proof that certificates of approval of the development plan required by
KRS 99.040 to 99.060 have been issued.
The supervising agency shall determine within a reasonable time thereafter the
truth or sufficiency of the statements and proof contained in such petition, and,
if such determination shall be in the affirmative, the supervising agency shall
issue to the petitioner a certificate of approval of condemnation. Such
certificate shall contain a description of the real property proposed to be
condemned, the facts so determined with respect thereto, and a statement that
the real property proposed to be condemned is required for a public use and
that its acquisition for such use is necessary. No condemnation proceeding to
acquire real property in a development area, by a city for a redevelopment
corporation, shall be commenced until such a certificate of approval of
condemnation shall have been issued.
