   A.   All monuments and gravestones must be placed upon foundations built of solid masonry, which shall not be less in size than the lower base of the structure, and which shall be of sufficient depth, in the opinion of the park and cemetery director, to support the monument. There shall be constructed a collar of concrete four inches (4") wide around the base at the bottom of each monument, or granite may be used as the foundation for the gravestone and must also have a minimum of a four inch (4") wide collar around the base of the monument. The monument must be glued and doweled securely to the granite. The top of the concrete collar or granite collar must be flush with the surrounding ground level. Specifications for a concrete collar are as illustrated in the drawing below.
 
   B.   All stones of sufficient thickness to stand alone shall be properly doweled to their base.
   C.   Wooden markers are prohibited.
   D.   The base of all monuments shall be cut so as to set fairly level on foundations.

   F.   In sections J, K, L, M, N and O of Forest Cemetery Annex and all future additions or annexations to Forest Cemetery, grave markers must be set flush with the surrounding ground level. Width of collar and marker combined is to be four inches (4") less than the width of the lot on which it is to be placed. The length of the marker is not to exceed sixteen inches (16"). No pot hangers may be placed unless inserted within the collar of the headstone. Such pot hangers must be removed from the cemetery by October 1 of every year and may not be again placed in the cemetery until May 1.
   G.   All headstones must be placed at the west edge of the lot except in sections G and F where they must be placed at the head of the lot. Any secondary stones must be placed flush to the first stone and flush with the ground.
