80-915.Acquisition of cemetery association or corporation property; maintenance. Whenever any cemetery association or corporation maintaining or owning a cemetery shall desire to convey such cemetery to the municipal township in which the cemetery is located for the purpose of making the cemetery a public burying ground, it shall be lawful for the township board to receive and take over the management and control of such cemetery upon such terms as may be agreed upon. When such cemetery becomes the property of the township it shall be the duty of the township to maintain the same at an annual expense of not less than $25 nor more than $100. Nothing in this act shall be construed to restrict or modify other public cemetery acts. Except as provided in K.S.A. 80-941 and 80-942, and amendments thereto, no township board shall agree to take over any such cemetery where the township already has and maintains a public cemetery.
