the City of Yorkton may apply to the provincial registrar for a declaration that
the interment rights in a lot have been abandoned. The registrar may
declare the interment rights to be abandoned if the registrar is satisfied that:
- The lot has not been used for interment purposes;
- The City has not heard from the buyer, or the buyers personal
representative, for 20 years;
- Reasonable efforts to locate the buyer or the buyers personal
representative have failed.
