No. Only the funeral or memorial service will take place at the public place location, the burial will take place elsewhere. Once a Medical Certificate of Cause of Death has been issued, a body can be buried. There are three choices of burial site: a public cemetery, a private cemetery, or private land.

We’re proposing that if caskets are permitted, they will be closed and shielded from the public.

The policy is considering making public places available for funerals and memorial services on weekdays between the hours of 9.00am and 3.00pm.

In 2019 we received a request to hold a funeral in Stirk Park, this prompted a Special Council Meeting in order to assess the viability of going ahead with this request. We’d like to take the conversation wider now and bring it to the public in order to understand how you feel about holding funerals in public places. The City of Kalamunda is dedicated to the well-being of its community, and death is a complicated issue.
