The Board of Trustees are appointed to four-year terms by the County of Orange Board of Supervisors.  Prior to the expiration of their term, if the Trustee is seeking re-appointment, the Trustee will send a letter of intent to the appointing Board of Supervisor requesting re-appointment.  The Board of Supervisor will review the information and then request action by the Board of Supervisors at a regular Board meeting.  If you are interested in becoming a Board of Trustee for the Orange County Cemetery District, please contact one of the Board of Supervisors to express you interest.  View the County's website to contact the Board of Supervisors.

The major functions of the trustees is to set policy, define goals and objectives, adopt rules and regulations, and act as legal custodian for District property. The Board has employed a General Manager to carry out policy, direct District operations, provide day-to-today supervision of staff and control and administer District expenditures.  The Board and General Manager are required to take ethics training every two-years. Managers at the District also take this training.
