Oregon Revised Statutes Chapter 97 § 97.460 — Requirements for establishment of cemetery or burial park

Requirements for establishment of cemetery or burial park. (1) A person may not lay out, open up or use any property for cemetery or burial park purposes unless the person: (a) Is the owner of the property; (b) Has the written consent of the planning commission of the county or city having jurisdiction under ORS 92.042 or, if there is no such commission in such county or city, the governing body of such county or city; (c) Agrees to maintain records of the disposition of human remains on the property as required by the planning commission or governing body of the county or city having jurisdiction under ORS 92.042; and (d) Agrees to disclose the disposition of human remains upon sale of the property. Failure to disclose the disposition of human remains does not invalidate the sale of the property. (2) A planning commission of a county or city or, if there is no planning commission in a county or city, the governing body of the county or city, shall provide to the State Mortuary and Cemetery Board a list of the requirements for laying out, opening up or using property in the county or city for cemetery or burial park purposes.
