General Cemetery Advisory Committee
The Cemetery Advisory Committee is a formal advisory body of Council for the purposes of considering, discussing and advising on specific issues related to the management and future direction of Council’s cemeteries.

- Make recommendations to Council on any aspect of cemetery management or operation, including policy, procedures and guidelines
- Recommend to Council asset development plans for cemeteries,
- Recommend to Council cemetery fees and charges,
- Recommend financial allocations to individual cemeteries from Council or other funding sources.
