Subject:
Request for City council to Adopt a Resolution to
Increase Prices at woodlawn Cemetery and Mausoleum
Introduction
This report requests that the City Council adopt a resolution to increase
prices for property and services at Woodlawn Cemetery and Mausoleum.
Background
In accordance with Ordinance No. 1013 (September 10, 1975), the prices for
all property and services throughout Woodlawn Cemetery and Mausoleum are
established from time to time by resolution of the City Council. The
current prices were established by Resolution No. 6636 (February 22, 1983).
since that time,
the Cemetery operating expenses have increased
significantly due to the price inflation of labor, insurance, gasoline,
replacement parts, equipment, etc.
since Woodlawn must remain competitive, the proposed prices are comparable
to those charged by other area cemeteries and mausoleums. Attachment 11111
is a regional price comparison.
BUdget/Financial Impact
The following table details the projected revenue increase based on the
proposed prices:

Mayor James Conn and Members of the Council:
My name is Michael Marsellos. (1431 Ocean Ave., Santa Monica, CA 90401)
I need your help in making a ruling on reserved crypts in the Santa Monica
Woodlawn Cemetery. The officials at the cemetery suggested I would need
to speak to the City Council.
On July 13, 1987 I purchased a crypt for my father who passed away on
July 12. At that time I reserved f,ve more crypts for the remainder
of my family to be near my father. I paid in full for my father's
interment. I requested to make a down payment on the other five
crypts and was'told that I could not do that. I as~ed for a ninety
day period to complete payment on the other five crypts. The
cemetary officia15 did not know if I could be assured of the current
rates in that case -- if you vote to raise the prices.
1 would like permission to make a down payment or be assured that
the price when the crypts were reserved could be guaranteed.
I would appreciate any help or clarification you could offer.
Thank you.
