When land donated for religious, educational, charitable, or public purposes becomes impractical to use for its original purpose due to changed conditions, courts can now either modify the restrictions to allow new uses that still serve the general charitable purpose, or authorize the sale of the land with proceeds reinvested in suitable replacement property. This expands the court's flexibility in managing donated lands by making it clearer that the court can adapt how the land is used while staying true to the donor's original charitable intent.
