355. The Regional Government may acquire by expropriation any immoveable, part of an immoveable or any real right, within the limits of its territory, which it may require for the establishment of regional or intermunicipal utilities or facilities.
However, in the case of an immoveable, part of an immoveable or any real right set apart for a public use or not susceptible of expropriation according to some general law or special Act, the prior authorization of the Government shall be required.
The foregoing provisions of this section shall not be regarded as restricting the rights which the Regional Government may otherwise have to acquire, by mutual agreement, immoveables for the same purposes.
For the purposes of the first paragraph, the Regional Government shall be deemed to be a municipality within the meaning of the Expropriation Act (chapter E-24).
