Latest version.
  • No person shall sell, either directly or indirectly, by any means whatsoever any burial sites, whether a grave plot, grave lot, mausoleum, columbarium or any one or more combinations, or other place or means for repose of human remains, which burial sites are not subject to the perpetual care and maintenance trust fund requirements of F.S. Ch. 497, unless and until such person makes provision for the perpetual care and maintenance of any such burial site as provided in this Chapter. Prior to receipt of a permit from the Director, or prior to making any new sales, as the case may be, such person shall establish a trust fund with a trust company, state or national bank holding trust powers, or other similar institution under the provisions of F.S. Ch. 660 and supply to the Director a copy of the trust fund agreement which shall contain the name, location and address of both the permittee and the trustee showing the date of agreement together with the percentage of purchase price of burial sites required to be deposited. No person shall withdraw or transfer any portion of the corpus of the care and maintenance trust fund without first obtaining the express written consent of the Director. There shall be exempt from the perpetual care and maintenance trust fund requirements of this Chapter any pauper burial provided by the City and any and all burial sites subject to the trust fund requirements of F.S. Ch. 497.
