Wisconsin Administrative Code › Cemetery Board › Chapter CB 5 - Approval of Alternative Care Investment Funds › Section CB 5.02 - Intent

Current through June 24, 2024
The intent of this chapter is to ensure that cemetery authorities that are
										required to register with the board maintain intact the principal amount in care funds in order to generate
										sufficient income to maintain cemeteries in perpetuity and to ensure that cemeteries in Wisconsin do not
										become a financial burden to taxpayers. It is also the intent to prohibit the officers, trustees, and the
										immediate family of the cemetery authority from directly profiting from the investments that are made by and
										on behalf of it.
Wisconsin Administrative Code › Cemetery Board › Chapter CB 5 - Approval of Alternative Care Investment Funds › Section CB 5.03 - Definitions

Current through June 24, 2024
As used in this chapter alternative investment means the use of care funds
										received from the sale of cemetery lots by a cemetery authority to purchase investment instruments, rather
										than depositing the care funds in a financial institution under s.
										157.19,
										Stats., or with the treasurer of the county or city in which the cemetery is located.
