(A) Permits. Before any deceased person is buried in the municipal cemetery, a permit will be properly issued by the registrar of the registration district in which the death occurred or, in the absence of such registrar, a permit duly issued by the state’s Division Cemetery Sexton. After burial, the Cemetery Sexton shall endorse upon the permit a description of the location where the deceased is buried and shall enter all the information contained in the permit in the cemetery records.
(B) Interment is limited to human remains. Interment will be made upon written order of the owner of the plot or of persons representing the owner. Direction for all interment must be given and all charges prepaid to the Sexton, a designated Town Council member. The town will not be responsible for errors arising from misinformation. The person giving an order must be able to give the plot owner’s name and address, the name of the person to be buried, the name of the Funeral Director or Funeral Home, the date and time of the funeral and the number of the certificate. Notice for opening a grave shall be given sufficiently early to allow at least two days for the work to be completed. The Kanarraville Town shall not be responsible for any miscommunication or misdirection when opening a grave. If, for any reason, a grave cannot be opened where specified, the Sexton may by discretion, open such location in the cemetery as it is deemed best and proper, so as not to delay the funeral and affect the interment.
