A. Every lot for which perpetual care has not been purchased and with reference to which the owner has established a right to directly provide for maintenance and care, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 12.20.130, shall be maintained and cared for to the extent and in accordance with the standards established by the governing body for care and maintenance of all lots of the cemetery.

B. In the event the owner fails to provide the requisite care and maintenance for nonperpetual care lots, the cemetery superintendent shall furnish care and maintenance at rates established by the governing body.
