. 29 <br /> Once assigned, a hearing should be set with the assigned judge to approve the petition, <br /> appoint commissioners, and rule on the Petitioner's request for a quick-take. The parties may <br /> require the scheduling of a second hearing to argue any public purpose challenge (usually set up <br /> like a summary judgment motion). There is a possibility that live testimony may be needed at <br /> the hearing. Note.also that the property owner may elect to challenge the need for the quick-take <br /> and/or the amount of the petitioner's approved appraisal value: <br /> The quick-take process does not limit the rights granted in Minnesota Statutes, Section <br /> 117.155, and the owner is entitled to the difference between the petitioner's appraised value and <br /> the commisioner's award. Also, neither payment to the owner nor deposit of the approved <br /> appraisal amount with the court, pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 117.02, as amended, <br /> shall prejudice or affect the right of an owner to contend for further payment in the proceeding. <br /> If the request for a quick-take is approved, the court will order the petitioner to deposit <br /> petitioner's approved appraisal amount with the administrator of the court, and upon deposit, and <br /> after the 90-day notice period, such property shall belong to the petitioner. <br /> Attached is a timeline for a quick-take condemnation action. <br /> • <br /> • <br /> DORSEY & WHITNEY LLP <br />
