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

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.
