Benson Funeral Home asks Nobles County to raise maximum county burial payments

Board of Commissioners of Nobles County · April 22, 2025

Summary

Benson Funeral Home requested an increase to Nobles County's maximum payments for county burials; staff provided the current 2025 maximums, a proposed alternative schedule, and a comparison with other counties.

A representative identified as Mr. Benson contacted Nobles County Community Services earlier in 2025 seeking higher maximum payment amounts for county-funded burials. Staff presented the current Nobles County Community Services Burial Plan maximums for 2025, an attachment showing what the maximum payments would be if the board approved Mr. Benson's request, and a county-by-county comparison of burial maximums across Minnesota.

The minutes note the county historically increased maximum burial payments by 2.5% annually since 2021; the board received the request and documentation as a special presentation. No final board action to change the burial payment schedule is recorded in the minutes for April 22.
