No. The City does not purchase back burial plots that have been sold. However, an owner of a cemetery plot may sell or transfer a burial space or spaces in his or her plot upon approval of the City Manager or his or her designee. In order to meet the approval, a notarized document containing pertinent information must be submitted and a transfer fee will be charged in most cases. The transfer fee will be equal to the difference in the current sale price of the owner and the purchaser's cost based on the applicable sale price for the plot or plots if purchased directly from the City. Transfer documents not recorded and filed in the City Finance Department will be deemed invalid. A plot or plots may not be sold for more than the current rate in effect at the time of sale.Cemetery
