Cemetery costs going up in Alpine October 1, 2015, 3:54 pmThe city has plans to expand the cemetery, but in the short-term this is a significant issue. Nelson said it was important to have plots available for Alpine residents. Prior to the change, Alpine City charged residents $800 for a plot and nonresidents $1,300. Alpine residents will now pay $985 for a plot and nonresidents will pay $1,500. Ex-resident costs for plots (which were formerly $1,000) and interment (formerly $250/$450) have been eliminated. Weekday interment costs for residents will increase from $150 to $600 (from $250 to $1,000 for nonresidents) and from $375 to $850 (from $450 to $1,500 non-resident) for weekends. Disinterment charges are increasing from $400 to $1,500. There has been no change in charges for infant burial, which is $125 ($350 for nonresidents) on weekdays and $350 ($400 nonresident) on weekends. Burials on major holidays (New Year's Day, Memorial Day, July 4, Labor Day, Thanksgiving or Christmas) are no longer available. Other holiday burials may be arranged through the city office. The new costs go into effect in early November.
