Sec. 5. (a) An incorporated cemetery that extends its boundaries to include the grounds of an unincorporated cemetery under section 2 of this chapter, instead of levying a periodic assessment against the owner of a lot under section 3 of this chapter, may collect a fixed amount from the owner in full satisfaction of all future assessments against the lot for the upkeep and maintenance.

(b) A cemetery association that receives money from the owners of lots under subsection (a) shall:

(1) hold and invest the money as a fund for the upkeep and maintenance of the lots; and

(2) expend only the income earned from the investment of the money under subdivision (1) in the care of the lots.

(c) After a cemetery association receives money from the owners of lots under subsection (a), the association shall keep and care for the lots.
