District wide Cemetery Charges
Last updated: 1 July 2023
The Council has an arrangement with certain funeral homes that provide services within the district to collect fees detailed in these cemetery charges on behalf of the Council. In return, the funeral homes keep 15 percent of any total fee to cover their administration costs associated with collecting these fees.
Cemetery charges will be reviewed regularly to ensure that they are consistent with the Council’s revenue and financing policy.
