§ 11-52.1-4.

Whenever any money or other property has been or may hereafter be given or bequeathed to the board of managers of any municipal cemetery owned or controlled by any city or village for the purpose of maintaining any lot in the cemetery, or for the purpose of maintaining the cemetery, as provided in this Division 52.1, the municipal authorities may by ordinance provide for the appointment of any corporation authorized to do trust business as trustee of such money or property, in place of the treasurer of the board of managers. The corporate trustee so appointed shall have the same powers, authority and duties with regard to the administration of the trust funds as are provided herein for the treasurer of the board of managers except that it shall not be required to execute a bond and may charge for its services as trustee such amounts as may be agreed upon from time to time with the municipal authorities. The corporate trustee so appointed shall have the power to invest the trust funds in any investment authorized by the law of Illinois as proper fiduciary investments. The trustee, however, may retain any property given or bequeathed to it in trust even though such property may not be a legal investment under the laws of Illinois. The board of managers may from time to time establish the minimum amount which will be received by gift or legacy for the use and maintenance of any lot in the cemetery, subject to the approval by the municipal authorities.
