The governing body of any municipality may, by ordinance and under such rules and
regulations as it may adopt, provide for the disinterring and removal of all human remains from
any cemetery which is within the municipality, or owned and controlled by the municipality and
located without its boundaries, whenever the governing body finds that the further maintenance
of all or any part of the cemetery as a burial place for the human dead threatens or endangers
