HB 132 Original 2016 Regular Session Hall
Abstract: Authorizes expropriation by a declaration of taking by the city of Pineville for the Main
Street to Sanders Street sewer relocation project.
Present law provides that the city of Pineville may acquire property for the Susek Drive Project by
expropriation by a declaration of taking when the city cannot amicably acquire the property needed
for the project.
Present law provides notice and procedures for expropriation by a declaration of taking.
Proposed law retains the present law notice and procedural requirements but changes the project for
which expropriation by a declaration of taking is authorized from the Susek Drive Project to the
Main Street to Sanders Street sewer relocation project.
