  1 18 planning commission appointed by the chair of the
  1 19 regional planning commission.  If the property to be

  1 22 owner of city property; one representative from the
  1 23 county planning commission; one representative from
  1 24 the county board of adjustment; and one representative
  1 25 from the regional planning commission appointed by the

  1 27 shall constitute a condemnation board to consider the

  1 29 planned use of the property to be condemned is
  1 30 compatible with the city's comprehensive plan,
  1 31 regional land use plan, and other relevant planning
  1 32 documents adopted by the city.  After a determination
  1 33 has been made concerning consistency with one or more
  1 34 of such plans, the chief judge of the judicial
  1 35 district shall appoint a five-member compensation
  1 36 commission.  The compensation commission shall consist
  1 37 of one city resident, one county resident if the
  1 38 property to be condemned is outside the corporate
  1 39 limits of a city, one realtor, one member of the city

  1 44 all property taken by the applicant and located in the
  1 45 county.  A person shall not be selected as a member of
  1 46 the compensation board or the compensation commission
  1 47 if the person possesses any interest in the proceeding
  1 48 which would cause the person to render a biased
  1 49 decision.  The clerk of the district court shall send,
  1 50 by ordinary mail, a list of those persons selected to

  2  8 in the county.  The applicant shall reimburse the

  2 10 and publication.""
