Description

The Chicago Land Clearance Commission brought this eminent domain action in the superior court of Cook County to acquire a parcel of real estate located in the 37th-Cottage Grove area on the South side of Chicago. The area had been designated a slum and blighted one, within the meaning of the Blighted Areas Redevelopment Act of 1947. (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1961, chap. 67 1/2 par. 63 et seq.) Shortly after the complaint was filed the commission was dissolved and its functions were transferred to the Urban Renewal Department of Chicago. The city has now been substituted as the party plaintiff herein. The owners moved to dismiss on the ground that there are no redevelopment plans and that the particular real estate sought to be acquired in this action is not a slum and blighted property. The court sustained the motion, observing that the city had failed to show what use was to be made of the area after the structures were torn down. The city has appealed directly to this court under section 12 of the Eminent Domain Act. Ill. Rev. Stat. 1961, chap. 47, par. 12.
