Perpetual care funds exist to pay for ongoing grounds maintenance, and the disbursements from the fund must be recorded with the same discipline as the contributions into it. CemSites cemetery perpetual care software tracks each disbursement with a date, amount, purpose, and authorization, maintaining an expense history that the cemetery can produce for board review or regulatory inquiry.
Over time, the disbursement history becomes a planning tool. A cemetery that can see how much it has spent from the fund annually over the past five years can project future maintenance costs and evaluate whether current contribution rates will sustain the fund long-term. CemSites captures this history as part of normal fund management, making the data available for planning without a separate analysis effort.
