Property owner filed an action to enjoin village from acquiring the property through condemnation in order to build a sidewalk.
The Circuit Court granted village summary judgment. Property owner appealed. The Court of Appeals reversed and remanded. Village petitioned for review.
The Supreme Court held that sidewalks are not “pedestrian ways” as that term is defined in statutes that prohibit condemnation, including condemnation by villages, to acquire property to establish or extend pedestrian way.
