Description
The appellee, city of Waukegan, incorporated in 1859 by special charter with a coextensive school district, filed a petition
in the circuit court of Lake County to condemn certain lands for a school building. The school board, by resolution, had selected
the site and requested the action, and the city council, by ordinance, had authorized the proceedings under the eminent domain
powers of special charter school districts. There was no referendum on the selection of the site. After a trial, the jury
fixed the just compensation at $35,000. Judgment was entered on the verdict, vesting fee simple title in the appellee, and
appellants, the original owners, appeal.
