1
to
condemn or otherwise acquire (other than by condemnation by 
2
quick take under
Article 20 of the Eminent Domain Act), and to 
3
convey, substitute
property when the City
reasonably 
4
determines that monetary compensation will not be sufficient or

5
practical just
compensation for property acquired by the City

acquisition of substitute property is declared to be

future use, regardless of whether
final
regulatory or funding 
11
decisions have been made; provided, however, that
quick-take of 
12
such property is subject to Section 25-7-103.149 of the Eminent 
13
Domain Act.
