Purchase of Plots
Mantua’s
policy on the purchase of resident and non-residents Cemetery Plots is as
follows:
An individual
who is currently a resident and has lived in Mantua at least 6 consecutive
months, a non-resident is anyone not living within the Mantua Town limits.
Our
policy is that each resident may purchase a plot for themselves and must name
another resident if another lot is purchased at resident rates. If the resident purchases a plot and names a
non-resident to be the owner of that plot, it would be non-resident rates for
that burial plot. If a resident
purchases a plot then buries a non-resident in the plot there would be a
transfer fee of $1150.00 at the time of internment. If a resident sells a plot
to a non-resident there would be an $1150.00 transfer fee to the new owner to
have the name changed on the plot.
Burials
If the
resident moves or leaves Town on their own free will then they will be
considered a non-resident at the time of their burial. This does not apply to any dependent attending
school elsewhere, being called on a mission for their church or having to move
into a care facility. Perpetual Care
A fee will
be charged at the time of purchase of a Cemetery Plot and at burial, this will
go toward the care of the Cemetery.
