Can a district require families to place markers on interment sites?
H&SC section 9052 states that a district may require that monuments or markers shall be placed at interment plots and that a district may adopt minimum requirements for the permanency of monuments or markers. The unanswered question is how can a district enforce the requirement for markers once it is adopted. Since districts cannot sell markers, they would have to be purchased from an outside source, usually after an interment has been made. This makes it difficult if not impossible to follow through with the requirement.
