Disposal of lands
Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
Whenever human remains have been ordered removed under this chapter, and the 
cemetery authority has made and published notice of intention to remove such remains, the 
portions of the cemetery in which no interments have been made, and those portions from 
which all human remains have been removed, may be sold, mortgaged, or otherwise 
encumbered as security for any loan or loans made to the cemetery authority. No order of any 
court is required prior to the making of any such sale, mortgage, or other encumbrance of such 
lands; but any sale of such cemetery lands made by any cemetery corporation, limited liability 
company, or association controlled by a governing body must be fairly conducted and the price 
paid must be fair and reasonable and all such sales must be confirmed, as to the fairness and 
reasonableness of the price paid, by the district court of the county in which the lands are 
situated.
