Historical Note
The Board of Eminent Domain Commissioners was created in 1907 to establish the assessed value of real property condemned for public use. The three commissioners were appointed by the Superior Court and were officials of the Court. However, the Board also represented the City in condemnation matters. The Board was abolished in the mid-1950s.
