(50 ILCS 30/6.4) (from Ch. 85, par. 1206.4)
Sec. 6.4.
Each Council has the power to acquire lands by lease, gift,
purchase, condemnation or otherwise, and to construct, reconstruct or
acquire by gift, grant, purchase, condemnation, lease or otherwise
buildings and other structures and personal property for any purpose within
the powers of such Council and to sell, transfer or convey its property, or
any part thereof, except that acquired by lease, when no longer necessary
or useful for its purposes or to exchange any such property for other
property which it may use for any purpose within the powers of such
Council.
Before a Council exercises its power to acquire land by condemnation,
such condemnation must be approved by a majority of the members of the
county board or corporate authorities that formed the Council.
