(4) The court having jurisdiction of the condemnation proceedings may make such orders as may be just to the city and to the owners of the property to be condemned, <br>and may require a bond or other security to secure the owners against any loss or <br>damage to be sustained by reason of the failure of the city to accept and pay for the <br>property. The bond or security shall impose no liability upon the city, except such as <br>may be paid from the funds received under KRS 181.560 to 181.840. History: Amended 1976 Ky. Acts ch. 140, sec. 83. -- Recodified 1942 Ky. Acts ch. 208, sec. 1, effective October 1, 1942, from Ky. Stat. sec. 3235g-13.
