In
case any street, road, highway, railroad, canal or other property subject or
devoted to public use shall become subject to flood or other interference by
reason of the construction or proposed construction of any works of the
district, the board may acquire by agreement or condemnation the right so to
flood or otherwise interfere with such property within or without the district,
whether it be publicly or privately owned. If such right is acquired by
condemnation proceedings, the judgment may, if the court finds that public
necessity or convenience so requires, direct the district to relocate such
street, road, highway, railroad, canal or other property in accordance with the
plans prescribed by the court. If, by such judgment or agreement, the district
shall be required to relocate any such street, road, highway, railroad, canal
or other property subject or devoted to public use, the board shall have the
power to acquire in the name of the district, by agreement or condemnation, all
rights-of-way and other property necessary or proper for compliance with the
agreement or judgment of condemnation, and thereafter to make such conveyance
of such relocated street, road, highway, railroad, canal or other property as
may be proper to comply with the agreement or judgment.
