Abstract
This paper aims to suggest the policies to solve the short supply of tree burial sites by NIMBY syndrome. For the purpose of this study, we conducted a site visit investigation and interviewed on the solved cases of NIMBY syndrome to tree burial sites and analyzed the factors to solve effectively the loss of residents induced from the burial facilities image of tree burial sites. As the result, in domestic cases, this study deduced the successful types which are providing an economical compensation, making the tree burial sites in cemeteries and making the sites in temple forests. In foreign cases, the types are deduced that made the tree burial sites as the place of attraction image not of cemeteries, and that induced the voluntary participation of residents by economic incentive. Based on such results, this study suggested the solution plans of NIMBY syndrome such as redevelopment of cemeteries, converting the image of tree burial sites into that of attraction places, and inducing PIMFY of residents by contest.
