        28F.11  EMINENT DOMAIN.
         Any public agency participating in an agreement authorizing the
      joint exercise of governmental powers pursuant to this chapter may
      exercise its power of eminent domain to acquire interests in
      property, under provisions of law then in effect and applicable to
      the public agency, for the use of the entity created to carry out the
      agreement, provided that the power of eminent domain is not used to
      acquire interests in property which is part of a system of facilities
      in existence, under construction, or planned, for the generation,
      transmission or sale of electric power.  In the exercise of the power
      of eminent domain, the public agency shall proceed in the manner
      provided by chapter 6B.  Any interests in property acquired are
      acquired for a public purpose, as defined in chapter 6A, of the
      condemning public agency, and the payment of the costs of the
      acquisition may be made pursuant to the agreement or to any separate
      agreement between the public agency and the entity or the other
      public agencies participating in the entity or any of them.  Upon
      payment of costs, any property acquired is the property of the
      entity.
