After acquiring and planning such cemetery or cemeteries, the circuit court of
the county wherein the cemetery is located shall appoint not less than five nor
more than nine trustees, who shall reside in the city or county, for the purpose
of managing and controlling such cemetery. The trustees shall have the power to
convey lots in the cemetery in accordance with the plan thereof, without
authority of court, and to include in deeds of conveyance such reasonable
restrictions and conditions as they deem advisable, and shall have all other
powers granted by general law to trustees of cemeteries. Such trustees shall,
before entering upon the performance of their duties, give bond with approved
security and in such penalty as the court determines for the faithful
performance of their duties.
