No property shall be taken under articles 1 to 8 of this title until just compensation has been paid according to law. But where a trial by jury is demanded under section 37-4-109, the board of directors may pay into court the amount allowed by the appraisers, with the costs, and thereupon the court shall make an order admitting the said district into possession of the property and thereupon the board of directors may enter into undisturbed possession of the property and rights involved. The right of entry provided by this section is a cumulative remedy and additional to the district's right of possession during the pendency of condemnation proceedings under the provisions of articles 1 to 7 of title 38, C.R.S.L. 22: p. 38, § 34. C.L. § 9548. CSA: C. 138, § 159. CRS 53: § 30-4-10. C.R.S. 1963: § 29-4-10.
