The purchaser of any lot or lots does by his or her purchase agree to abide by all provisions of all laws and ordinances of this state and city in force at any time relating to the cemetery including all amendments hereafter adopted, and all rules and regulations adopted in connection with said cemetery and shall agree that no transfer shall be made without the approval of the Finance Officer, after first offering said property to the city as hereinafter provided. Such agreement shall be made at the time of purchase. Under SDCL § 47-29-8, whenever an interment is made in any cemetery lot transferred to an individual owner by the city, the same thereby becomes forever inalienable while any person is buried therein and descends in regular line of succession to the heirs-at-law of the owner, but any one or more of the heirs or any other joint owners may release to each other or their interest in the same.
