Municipal services and programs

Cemeteries

The Bereavement Authority of Ontario provided the following directive, effective Friday, July 17, 2020, areas that enter Phase 3 of Ontario’s re-opening plan are subject to the following attendance limits:

  1. Indoor funeral services and visitations are limited to 30 per cent of the capacity of the room, while maintaining two-metre physical distancing between attendees. (This is unchanged from the previous Registrar’s Directive of June 13)
    All other requirements of the previous Registrar’s Directive remain in effect. (One staff per 10 attendees, guestbook, etc.) 
      
  2. Outdoor funeral services and visitations including graveside services are limited to a maximum of 100 attendees. Funeral Directors must have sufficient numbers of staff present to ensure physical distancing is maintained. Cemeteries are permitted to restrict attendance numbers to less than the maximum. (Funeral professionals should confirm these restrictions in advance of the service.)
