Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the not-for-profit corporation law, in relation to cemetery trust funds

AI Summary

This bill amends the Not-for-Profit Corporation Law to allow cemetery corporations that have adopted a written investment policy in accordance with the Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act to annually appropriate a portion of the principal of their permanent maintenance and perpetual care funds for the maintenance and preservation of the cemetery grounds, up to a "safe harbor" amount of 4% of the principal's fair market value. The bill requires the cemetery corporation to provide notice to the Cemetery Board of any such proposed appropriation and to disclose it in their annual reporting. The Cemetery Board can object to the proposed appropriation if it exceeds the safe harbor amount or the investment policy does not comply with the Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act.
