Abandoned Cemeteries

Summary

The bill amends Florida’s cemetery law to give the state an easement to enter abandoned burial sites on private property after notifying the owner, so it can maintain the grounds and conduct research. It also confirms that relatives can maintain an abandoned cemetery if the owner refuses. The change aims to protect neglected graves and enable historical study.
