district bond fund and not from any other source, the
board shall pay to the appropriate parties the amounts respectively due them for land, rights-of-way, or other
property taken or purchased or for work done by
contract or otherwise. If all or part of the land, rights-of-way, or other property is secured by purchase or contract, payment shall be made according to the terms of the contract. If property is taken by condemnation under this chapter, the amount of
damages assessed shall be paid within ninety (90) days after the final determination of the condemnation proceedings or as soon after that as the fund from the bonds is available. The title to the land, rights-of-way, or other property or that part paid for or otherwise acquired for that purpose then vests in the municipality in the manner, to the extent, for the purpose, and subject to the limitations of this chapter.
