Kildare County Council manages 32 active burial grounds.
There are calls for a review of all cemetery charges and fees in Kildare.
KCC charges from €1,100 for a single plot and from €2,160 for double plots.
Charges are also levied for grave opening, for interment of ashes, and for inscriptions on columbarium walls.
Fine Gael Cllr., Kevin Duffy, also wants Kildare County County to review the fees levied in the context of cemetery operation costs, with regard to charges with other "relevant county councils" across the island of Ireland.
He says this should "determine whether the current fees and fee structure are still reasonable or whether alternative models should be considered."
KCC has responsbility for 32 active cemeteries and 33 closed burial grounds.
5 cemeteries, in Athy, Naas, Newbridge, Leixlip and Celbridge have permanent caretakers.
Part-time caretakers work in 27 burial grounds.
The motion will be debated at the May monthly meeting of Kildare County Council.
