Description of the
The fees for the use of the municipal burial facilities can generally be divided into grave utilisation fees and burial fees.
The amount of the grave utilisation fees is essentially based on the cost of providing and maintaining the cemetery. It is usually charged once in advance for the entire period of use. The burial fees cover the usual services associated with a burial, such as opening and closing the grave, laying out in the mortuary, etc., taking into account the regular expenses.
The administrative fee, which the municipality can charge for official acts with which it enforces the burial regulations, is to be distinguished from the user fees.
Prerequisites
The user fees are determined in a statute on the basis of the Local Rates Act. The fee revenue should cover the costs that can be recognised according to economic principles. The fees are also to be calculated according to the extent to which the public facility is used. The prerequisite for charging administrative fees is a municipal cost statute, the legal basis of which is the Cost Act. The administrative costs and the importance of the matter must be taken into account.Legal basis
