Title: Resolution to Approve New Fees for Fairview Cemetery
Summary
The City of Ann Arbor is proposing a new fee schedule for Fairview Cemetery, effective in 2026. The changes include increases in various burial and disinterment fees, reflecting a trend toward higher costs. For instance, the fee for a full grave burial will rise from $750 to $900, with weekend burials increasing from $900 to $1,100. Similarly, cremation burials will see a jump from $400 to $500. The proposal also includes adjustments for infant burials, transfers of lot ownership, and the sale of grave lots for residents and non-residents. This legislation affects families planning burials or cremations, as well as those managing cemetery lots, and underscores the importance of financial considerations in end-of-life
