OPINION
HARTEN, Judge
The district court granted a quick-take condemnation pursuant to Minn. Stat. § 117.042 (2000) to respondent Housing and Redevelopment Authority for the City of Richfield. Appellants Walser Auto Sales, Inc., Motorwerks, Inc., R.J. Walser, Paul Walser, and Andrew Walser contend that the taking was not authorized by law and was not supported by findings of public purpose and necessity. Respondent alleges that the appeal is moot because it has acquired title to the property. Because we conclude that the appeal is not moot, we address the merits and affirm.
