17-1302a.   Replatting of areas of certain cemeteries established by
religious corporations.

Whenever a religious organization has, prior to the effective date of
this act established a cemetery and provided for the operation thereof by a
board of directors, and the lots have been surveyed and platted and the
plat recorded in the office of the register of deeds of the county in which
the cemetery is situated prior to 1940, and where there are some areas of
these platted lands containing a number of lots which have not been sold or
otherwise disposed of, and the board of directors of the cemetery shall
determine that there is a real necessity to widen driveways and change the
size of the lots in such unsold or undisposed of platted areas, then, the
board of directors may replat such areas that are to be used for cemetery
purposes in such a manner as to widen the driveways and change the size of
the unsold lots, so that they may be utilized in the best possible way.
Such replat shall be recorded in the office of the register of deeds in the
same manner as the original plat was recorded.
