(C) If the court determines that an action of the village pursuant to this chapter constitutes a taking of the property of a person, then the court shall order the village, at the village's option, to do one or more of the following:
(1) Compensate the property owner for the full amount of the lost value;
(2) Purchase the property in the public interest as determined before its value was affected by this chapter; and
