Such fees at cemeteries are illegal. This concerns, among other things, car access.

The West Pomeranian Voivode has invalidated certain fees imposed by the Koszalin mayor regarding cemetery operations. He stated that municipalities cannot charge residents arbitrary fees for communal cemetery services. The ruling specifies that only fees directly related to burial can be charged, prohibiting additional costs for cemetery access, infrastructure use, and administrative tasks. This decision aligns with previous administrative court rulings, emphasizing that municipalities cannot transfer general operational costs to residents. Fees for extending rights to columbarium niches after 20 years are also deemed illegal.
