SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)
Cemetery Board. Requires cemetery companies providing a grave or an above-ground crypt or niche, without compensation, to deposit 10 percent of the retail sales price within 30 days after the close of the month in which the property is provided to the customer. The bill defines “retail sales price” as the standard, nondiscounted price included on the general price list required to be provided by the cemetery company upon beginning discussion of burial arrangements or the selection of any property or services. In addition, the bill adds to the definition of “cemetery company” any person maintaining a facility used for the interment or disposal of the remains and required to maintain perpetual care or preneed trust funds. The bill also contains technical amendments.
