The governing body shall, from time to time, by resolution, fix the size of lots if it is determined that a size different than herein set out is appropriate, the price at which burial rights shall be sold, and the fees which shall be charged for the various cemetery services.
(A) Payment and fees. Payments for the opening and closing of graves must be paid in full prior to a burial. The city reserves the right to work with mortuaries of its choice for “package deals” involving utilization of cemetery services.
(B) Duplicate certificate.
(1) A lost certificate (deed) can be reissued for a small fee, as determined from time to time by the governing body, and upon filing of an affidavit of a lost certificate by the applicant for the new certificate.
(2) In addition to replacing a lost certificate, a new certificate (deed) will be issued if a change in ownership, through will or legal documentation, takes place.
(3) In case of change of such ownership, the old certificate (deed) must be relinquished to the city.
(C) Number of lots available for purchase. Purchase of gravesites will be limited to 12 gravesites per household.
(D) Fees for disinterment/exhumations. Fees for disinterment/exhumations will be higher than regular opening/closing fees due to the increased time and care that must occur for a grave that is dug by hand.
