The board of supervisors of said district shall not have the right to enter upon or
appropriate any land for rights-of-way, holding basins, or other works of the said
district, until the prices awarded to the owners of such land shall have been paid
to such owners, or into the hands of the clerks of the circuit courts for the use
of such owners; and if the sums awarded be not so paid within five years from the
date of filing the commissioner's reports, all proceedings as to the taking of such
property for rights-of-way, holding basins and other works not so paid for shall abate
at the cost of said district. Whenever any land is acquired by said district under
the provisions of this Act and the price of such property has been paid the owner
by the district, the title, use, possession and enjoyment of such property shall pass
from the owner and be vested in the district, and subject to its use, profit, employment
and final disposition. The price awarded for all lands acquired by any district for
rights of way, holding basins, or other works, and the amount of damages assessed
by the board of commissioners and confirmed by the court to any tract or parcel of
land or other property in the district, shall be paid in cash to the owner thereof,
or to the clerk of the court for the use of such owner, and that portion of any tract
or parcel of land not taken for use of the district shall be assessed for the benefits
accruing in accordance with the provisions of previous sections of this article.
