RE: Family Funeral Care Project
FM 518, Pearland, Texas
Dear Mr. Mueller:
The following information is provided to aid in your understanding of traffic generated by this proposed
project.
This funeral home will be a new business. Our regional staff projects the first year's operations at 80
services. This equates to less than two per week. By the fifth year, projections call for 120 to 130
funerals. This would produce less than three funeralsper week.
Visitations (private viewings) are normally held the day before the funeral. The average number of cars
coming to a visitation is twelve. These trips are normally staggered throughout the day and evening. It is
rare to have more than three vehicles at any one time in the parking lot at a single visitation.
The average service will be attended by 40 to 50 people who arrivewith two to three individuals per
vehicle. The average number of vehicles per service is approximately 20. Funerals are scheduled at
10:00 a.m., 12:00 noon and 2:00 p.m. (non -peak traffic hours). The average service lasts twenty minutes.
Only 80% of the funeral attendees go in procession to the graveside service. An average funeral with 20
vehicles would have approximately 16 cars going to the cemetery. Approximately 10% of the families
choose to have the deceased cremated which might involve a funeral service but would not have a
procession to a cemetery.
There are three cemeteries to which most processions will be taken. Approximately 45% of the
processions would go east from the funeral home to Forest Park East Cemetery and the remainder would
go west from the funeral home to South Park or Forest Lawn Cemeteries.
Please let me know if you need further clarification or information.
Sincerely,
David S. Reynolds
