The city may take the property by eminent domain, and an appraisal will help set the value.



Fresno is also concerned about preservation, and an architectural historian will also take a look inside.

The theater's owner has been trying to sell it to Adventure Church and rejects the city's attempts to go in.

They now have 30 days to arrange a visit unless they extend the legal fight.
