Section 5-318. Agreements for compensation to be awarded for the removal of structures from premises being acquired

a.  The  mayor,  prior  to  the  purchase  of  the premises being acquired, upon which buildings or parts
  of buildings or other structures are erected, or prior to the signing of
  the final decree of the court,  may  agree  with  the  owner  or  owners
  thereof,  or  any  person  having a beneficial interest therein, in case
  title thereto has not vested in the city:
    1. As to the cost and compensation to be allowed and paid to  them  to
  remove such buildings or parts of buildings or other structures, and
    2.  That  such  sum or sums shall be the compensation to be awarded by
  the court, or allowed for the damage done such  buildings  or  parts  of
  buildings or other structures by virtue of such proceeding.
    Such  agreement  may  also  be  made as a condition of the sale by the
  city, at private sale, of its interest in such  buildings  or  parts  of
  buildings  or  other  structures, after vesting of title thereto, to the
  owner or owners of the award or awards therefor or other persons  having
  an interest therein.
    b. Such buildings or parts of buildings or other structures shall not,
  in any case, be relocated or re-erected within the lines of any proposed
  street  or  other  public  improvement.  The  mayor shall prescribe such
  conditions in the terms of sale, which, if  broken,  shall  entitle  the
  city  to  a resale of such property and which shall revest title thereto
  in the city.
    c. The court shall accept such agreed amounts of compensation for  the
  removal  of  buildings  or parts of buildings or other structures as the
  amounts to be awarded as such compensation and include the same  in  the
  tentative and final decrees.
