Cemetery FAQs

 

  • How do I find out if someone is buried in the cemetery?
    Call Public Works at 541-504-2000

 

  • Does the City buy back cemetery plots?
    No.  You can place an ad in the newspaper or call a funeral home for more information.  Once a plot is sold, a copy of the quit claim deed must be received by the Public Works Department to show the change in ownership. 

 

 

  • Can we have a Sunday service?
    No Sunday or holiday burials are performed.

 

  • When can I schedule a burial?
    A two day notice of intent to bury is required to allow time to prepare the site.  Burials are performed Monday through Friday with the last one for the day scheduled by 2:30 p.m.  If a burial after 2:30 p.m. is scheduled, overtime charges are assessed at $50 per hour.  Saturday burials are performed with the last one for the day scheduled by 11:00 a.m.  However, additional charges are incurred for Saturday services.  List of cemetery prices
