Description

The opinion of the court was delivered by This is an appeal brought by the appellant, Western Power & Gas
Co., Inc., from judgments entered in four separate condemnation
cases which were consolidated and tried before a single jury. In
1968 Western instituted a condemnation action to acquire
easements across certain tracts of land in Barton County, Kansas,
for the transmission of electrical energy. Western in taking the
easements contemplated the construction of power lines consisting
of five wires combined to carry 230,000 volts of electricity. The
power lines were suspended on two-pole settings called "H
Structures." On March 25, 1968, the court appointed appraisers
filed their report assessing damages resulting from the taking of
the easements by Western. Appeals were taken from the appraisers'
award by four separate sets of landowners to the district court
of Barton County. Each appeal involved separately located tracts
of land which may be described as follows: Harold C. Schwartz and
Geraldine H. Schwartz appealed as owners of a 160 acre tract upon
which Western installed four H pole structures. This will be
called the Schwartz tract. Wilfred Schartz and Elsie Mae Schartz
appealed as owners of a 160 acre tract on which Western installed
two H pole structures. This we will call the Schartz tract.
Robert W. Mermis appealed as the owner of a 160 acre tract on
which Western installed two H poles. This will be called the
Mermis tract. Wayne E. Pritchard and Helen Pritchard appealed as
owners of an 80 acre tract on which Western installed one H pole
structure. This we will call the Pritchard tract. No
[208 Kan. 846]
other appeals were taken from the award of the condemnation
appraisers.
