§ 36-9-6-4 — Condemnation, rental, and purchase of property

The works board may condemn, rent, or
purchase any real or personal property needed by the city for any public
use, unless a different provision for purchase is made by statute or
ordinance. However, the city legislative body may by ordinance:
(1) require that these condemnations, rentals, or purchases be
included in a long-range capital expenditure program to be
proposed by the works board and updated as required by the
legislative body, but at least annually;
(2) require the works board to estimate, at least annually,
expenditures needed for condemnations, rentals, and purchases
for each successive fiscal year;
(3) approve, amend, or reject all or part of the long-range capital
expenditure program and the proposed annual expenditures,
before or during the adoption of the city budget; and
(4) specify the manner in which the works board must itemize the
estimates of capital program expenditures for each fiscal year.
