Section 13:44J-6.3 - Paths

(a) Paths to interment spaces or niches shall be a minimum of 30 inches wide.

(b) When a cemetery company resurveys, alters, changes or modifies a portion of its grounds which have been previously laid out on a map or maps into interment spaces or niches, the cemetery company shall ensure that paths to previously sold interment spaces or niches are maintained.

(c) This section shall not apply to the laying out of portions of ground in areas of cemetery property which have not previously been laid out on a map or maps into paths or interment spaces or niches.

(d) An unsold interment space which is plotted in a manner that does not conform with this subchapter shall not be sold or used for interment purposes.

(e) If a sold interment space, in which no interment has been made, is plotted in a manner which makes a path non-conforming, the cemetery company shall exercise due diligence and negotiate in good faith with the lot owner for the transfer or exchange of the lot owner's non-conforming space with other space that conforms with this provision. After the transfer or exchange, the non-conforming plot shall be replotted or eliminated. The transfer or exchange of the non-conforming plot shall be provided at no expense to the lot owner beyond what the lot owner agreed to pay for the non-conforming plot.
