Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
After the removal of all human remains interred in any part or the whole of the cemetery 
lands, the cemetery authority shall file for record in the office of the county recorder of the 
county or municipality in which the lands are situated a written declaration reciting that all 
human remains have been removed from the lands described in the declaration.
The declaration must be acknowledged in the same manner as acknowledgments of deeds 
to real property by the president and secretary, or other corresponding officers of the cemetery 
authority, or by the person owning or controlling the cemetery lands, and thereafter any deed, 
mortgage, or other conveyance of any part of such lands is conclusive evidence in favor of any 
grantee or mortgagee named therein, and that person's successor or assigns, of the fact of the 
complete removal of all human remains therefrom.
