The commission agreed that they were not interested in making an allowance to the Policy and Procedures of the Laurel Cemetery without making a change in the Policy and Procedures to reflect the same. Documentation was brought forward to the Commission from the National Cemetery Administration in regard to eligibility for burial in a National Veteran Cemetery and the Commission was unanimous in the wish that our Veterans section in the Laurel Cemetery reflect those same conditions of eligibility.The motion was made by Ken Olsen and seconded by Wallace Hall to send to the City Council a one-time exception for the burial of a military member's spouse prior to the military member's burial. The request was brought by Dave Gauslow. The Commission also further recommended that the Mayor with the city attorney bring forward new language for section 5-C of the Cemetery Policy and Procedures for City Council consideration to make this change Permanent. The Cemetery Commission Chair was asked to send the proposed exception to the current policy and the proposed policy change to the mayor so that these may be brought to the council for consideration at a future date. Chuck and Kurt discussed a Brochure for the Laurel Cemetery and they agreed to work on this and to try and have something prepared prior to this up-coming Memorial Day. The other agenda items for which there were no time to bring forward to the discussion were agreed to be moved to the agenda for the next scheduled Cemetery Commission meeting of 6/14/2016. The meeting was adjourned at 6:04pm.
