A quorum (3 or more) present, the following action was taken by the committee:
There was discussion regarding the sequence of selling cemetery lots. Recently
there were some problems when the Philhower family wanted to buy lots at the
very back of Section "B". They claim they were promised these lots a long time
ago. The committee re-affirmed their previous decision that lots must be sold
in order and not "helter-skelter" throughout a section.
Discussion regarding burials following a weekend or holiday. It was suggested
that a schedule of City Holidays be sent to all the funeral homes in the area
informing them that the city must be notified of a burial by at least noon on
the working day prior to a weekend or holiday. Winter months may require
additional time. In the event of the above, an afternoon burial would be
preferred if at all possible.
It was also suggested that a notice be sent to the monument companies reminding
them that they need to contact the city for prior approval before setting any
monuments, headstones or footstones.
Lloyd Shay will contact the American Legion to see if the Veterans want to
continue going north with the Veterans plots or if they want to move to the East.
There being no further business at this time the meeting was adjourned at 5:10
p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
Sharon Herman
Deputy City Clerk
