Removes the exemption for electric cooperatives in eminent domain proceedings

Summary

The bill repeals the current rule that lets electric cooperatives avoid higher compensation when they take agricultural or horticultural property through eminent domain. Instead, any electric corporation, including cooperatives, must pay owners 150% of the fair market value for such land. This change aims to ensure landowners receive greater compensation when utilities acquire their property.
