ยง 66. Final decree. After considering the objections, if any, and
making any corrections or alterations in the tentative decree which the
court shall consider just and proper, it shall give instructions to the
corporation counsel as to the preparation of the final decree, which
shall consist of the tentative decree altered and corrected in
accordance with the instructions of the court, together with a statement
of the facts conferring on the court jurisdiction of the proceeding, and
that the amounts set opposite each parcel in the column headed "final
awards" constitute the compensation to which the respective owners of or
persons in any way interested in the property taken or extinguished in
such proceeding are justly entitled to receive from the city and a
statement of the respective owners and interested parties. In all cases
where the owners or persons interested are unknown, or not fully known
to the court, it shall be sufficient to set forth and state in general
terms the respective sums to be allowed and paid to the respective
owners and interested parties without specifying their names or their
estates or interests. The final decree shall be filed in the office of
the clerk of the county where the property affected by the proceeding is
situated.
