Peaceful spaces rich with history, the Municipality’s inactive cemeteries are good places for genealogical studies or a quiet spot to memorialize.

An interment right is not the purchase of land. It is the purchase of the right to decide who may be buried or interred in a specific grave, lot, or niche. The cemetery always retains ownership of the land.

To arrange an interment, the following documentation is required;

• Original Burial Permit or Original Cremation Certificate
• Completed Direction to Inter Form
• Payment of Applicable Fees
  
  
  

Consent from Interment Rights Holder

For an interment to take place, consent is required from the interment rights holder. Interment rights refers to the right to bury human remains in a grave or niche. If you are named on the interment rights certificate, you are the interment rights holder and require the right to request a burial, place a decoration, have a marker or monument installed, as long as you follow the cemetery’s by-laws.
