What kinds of safeguards are in place to see that a cemetery is well-maintained even if there is no more property to sell?
The laws of New York require all regulated cemeteries to take 10% of every sale and $35 from each burial and place it in a managed Permanent Maintenance Fund. As a cemetery continues to sell property, this fund grows considerably. Once there is no more property to sell, the income from the Permanent Maintenance Fund is used to maintain the cemetery in perpetuity.
