Cemetery Rules and Regulations:
The cemetery sexton is in charge of selling all burial plots. All graves are to be paid for at time of purchase. A deed will be given to the buyer. All sales are recorded in cemetery books by the sexton and bookkeeper.
The transfer of any plot is subject to approval by the cemetery board. Plots can only be resold to the cemetery at the original price without interest.
The cemetery board will keep the graves mowed, filled-in, and seeded when necessary. This work will be done by cemetery employees only.
Each burial will use an approved vault.
All foundations for monuments will be installed by the sexton at a charge per square foot. These charges will be set by the cemetery board.
All monuments must be made of everlasting material, such as granite, bronze, or marble. No concrete vases or wooden crosses are allowed.
Benches are allowed only when used as a headstone and must be made of everlasting material, such as granite, bronze, or marble. Benches to honor a loved one may be placed in appropriate locations in the cemetery upon approval by the cemetery board.
No pets or other animals are allowed in the cemetery except on a leash. Pet owners must clean up after pets if needed.
Guests will adhere to the speed limit of 10 mph inside the cemetery.
The cemetery grounds will be open sunrise through sunset.
Decoration Rules:
No landscape plants, such as trees, shrubs, flowers, or other ground cover shall be planted unless approved by the cemetery board.
No flowers in or on the ground are allowed during mowing season - with the exception of Memorial Day Weekend & Week.
Memorial Day Weekend & Week begins Thursday before Memorial Day and ends the following Sunday. Decorations are to be removed by the end of the day Sunday so mowing can resume.
Flowers on saddles or in vases attached to the monuments are allowed year-round.
No solar lights are allowed in the ground. These may be placed in vases attached to the monuments.
No signs, cards, advertisements, enclosures, ornaments, vases, glass cases, potted plants (except during Memorial Day Weekend/Week), plastic designs, toys, wire holders, or shepherd’s hooks are allowed. Items deemed unsafe or unsightly will be removed without notice.
