1.The property is needed for expansion in the foreseeable future;

2.The property in all probability will not again be offered for sale at a similar price in the foreseeable future; and

3.The legislative assembly has not previously rejected a similar request and the time during which the purchase must be consummated does not permit obtaining a legislative appropriation. Determination that an emergency exists is not a condition precedent to the approval

2. The property in all probability will not again be offered for sale at a similar price in the
foreseeable future; and
3. The legislative assembly has not previously rejected a similar request and the time
