        6B.26  DISPOSSESSION OF LANDOWNER OR INJURY TO
      PROPERTY -- LIMITATION.
         1.  A landowner shall not be dispossessed under condemnation
      proceedings of the landowner's residence, dwelling house,
      outbuildings if the residence or dwelling house is also acquired,
      orchard, or garden, until the damages thereto have been finally
      determined and paid.  However, if the property described in this
      subsection is condemned for highway purposes by the state department
      of transportation, the condemning authority may take possession of
      the property either after the damages have been finally determined
      and paid or one hundred eighty days after the compensation commission
      has determined and filed its award, in which event all of the
      appraisement of damages shall be paid to the property owner before
      the dispossession can take place.  This subsection shall not apply to
      condemnation proceedings for drainage or levee improvements, or for
      public school purposes.  For the purposes of this subsection,
      "outbuildings" means structures and improvements located in
      proximity to the landowner's residence.
         2.  If it appears from the finding of the commissioners that the
      dwelling house, outhouse, orchard, or garden of the owner of any land
      taken will be overflowed or otherwise injuriously affected by any dam
      or reservoir to be constructed as authorized by this chapter, such
      dam shall not be erected until the question of such overflowing or
      other injury has been determined in favor of the corporation upon
      appeal.
