Missouri Revised Statutes Title XIV. Roads and Waterways § 226.967. Notice of intent to acquire by commission, procedure, time limitation, effect--corridor location changes or failure to start construction, prior property owner first refusal to reacquire property at cost

From the date the commission gives notice of probable intent to acquire the whole or any part of the subject property which is within the highway corridor, or is deemed to have given such notice, the regulatory authority shall take no action to approve the property owner's application or request for a further period of one hundred twenty days. If the commission does not acquire, agree to acquire, or commence an action in circuit court to condemn the property within this one hundred twenty-day period, the regulatory authority shall then be free to act upon the pending application in such manner as may be provided by law. If the location of a corridor is changed after property is acquired by the commission or the commission fails to initiate construction within ten years after a certified copy of the corridor map is filed under sections 226.952 to 226.957, the person from whom the property was acquired shall have the right of first refusal to reacquire the property at a cost of not more than the compensation paid by the commission to such person for the property.
