Measures to acquire land on Champaign agenda

CHAMPAIGN – Five property owners who have yet to sell their land to the city for the Boneyard Creek Second Street detention project could be faced in coming months with eminent domain lawsuits to take their property.

The city council will be asked Tuesday night to allow the city manager to file eminent domain lawsuits against the five property owners, if the property owners do not sell to the city within 60 days of receiving a final offer.
