     525.67 Agreement and sale for public purpose. 

    When any real estate of a ward or conservatee is desired by 
 any person, firm, association, corporation, or governmental 
 agency having the power of eminent domain, the guardian or 
 conservator may agree, in writing, upon the compensation to be 
 made for the taking, injuring, damaging, or destroying thereof, 
 subject to the approval of the court.  When the agreement has 
 been made, the guardian or conservator shall file a petition, of 
 which the agreement shall be a part, setting forth the facts 
 relative to the transaction.  The court, with notice as provided 
 in section 525.83, except that no publication is required unless 
 it is ordered by the court, shall hear, determine, and act upon 
 the petition.  If the court approves the agreement, the guardian 
 or conservator, upon payment of the agreed compensation, shall 
 convey the real estate sought to be acquired and execute any 
 release which may be authorized.
