All such grants shall reserve to the City the right to purchase or lease all the property of the utility used in or useful for the operation of the utility, at a price either fixed in the ordinance making the grant, or to be fixed in the manner provided by such ordinance, which price shall in no event include any value for the grant. Nothing in such ordinance shall prevent the City from acquiring such property by condemnation proceedings or in any other lawful mode, but such rights and remedies shall be in addition to those reserved in such ordinance. Upon the acquisition of such property by purchase, condemnation, or otherwise all grants shall at once terminate.
It shall be provided in every such grant that upon the annexation of any territory to the City the portion of any such utility that may be located within such annexed territory and upon the streets, alleys, or public grounds thereof, shall thereafter be subject to all the terms of the grant as though it were an extension made thereof.
