RS 1121.107 - Expropriation
A. If a unit is acquired by eminent domain, unless the order of taking otherwise provides, that unit's entire common element interest, votes in the association, and proportionate liability for common expense assessments are deemed to be reallocated to the remaining units in proportion to the respective common element interests, voting power, and common expense liabilities of those units prior to the taking, and the association shall promptly prepare, execute, and record an amendment to the declaration reflecting the reallocation.
B. If a portion, but less than all of a unit is acquired by expropriation, and the remaining portion of the unit may be practically or lawfully used for those purposes permitted under the declaration, such unit's ownership in the common elements, votes in the association, and proportionate liability for common expenses shall be reduced in proportion to the reduction in the size of the unit, or on any other basis specified in the declaration, and the portion of the ownership interest in the common elements, voting power, and liability for common expense assessments divested from the partially acquired unit shall be deemed to be reallocated to that unit and the remaining units in proportion to the respective common element ownership interest, voting power, and liability for common expenses of those units prior to the taking, with the partially acquired unit participating in the reallocation on the basis of its reduced size.
C. If a portion of the common elements is acquired by expropriation, the award shall be paid to the association. The association shall divide any portion of the award not used for restoration or repair of the remaining common elements among the unit owners in proportion to their respective ownership interest in the common elements before the taking; any portion of the award attributable to the acquisition of a limited common element shall be equally divided among the owners of the unit to which that limited common element appertains, or in such other manner as the declaration may provide.
