Current through Rules and Regulations filed through September 23, 2024

If a perpetual care cemetery required to register with the Secretary of State contains lots, sections, or parcels for which perpetual care is not promised and maintained, the nonperpetual care section shall be physically separate or distinguished from the perpetual care sections, and both nonperpetual care and perpetual care sections shall be clearly marked and designated. This requirement may be satisfied by the installation of an identifying sign, of a size not less than one-half (1/2) square foot, spaced not less than every one hundred (100) feet along the perimeter of each nonperpetual care section, identifying any nonperpetual care section as such. Any plat of the cemetery filed with the Secretary of State, and any map of the cemetery provided to any person, shall likewise identify any nonperpetual care portion of the cemetery. In the event a cemetery does not post such signs and depict such information on its plat with respect to any section or portion, such property may be considered to be a perpetual care cemetery portion.
