(a) The entire grounds are mowed at least once a week and trimming around memorials takes place on about a three week cycle. Please be aware that weather conditions can sometimes alter our ability to maintain these schedules.
(b) Visitors and owners are reminded of the City's obligation to maintain the lawns and trimming of grass around memorials; which occurs once or twice weekly throughout the grass mowing season. Digging the ground or placing of rod or brackets to emplace pots and containers at places of interment is not allowed at any time of the year, since this disturbs the turf and may damage expensive maintenance equipment.
(c) Statuary, wrought iron, urns and benches, vigil lights, flag poles, decorative pavers, glass, wire, wood chips, marble chips, etc. are not permitted at any time and will be removed without notice.
(d) Planting of anything is not permitted. All flowers or decorations shall be placed either on marker, such as a saddle bouquet or in vases on side of marker, so as not to interfere with the trimming and mowing of grounds.
(e) The Cemetery assumes no responsibility for flowers and/or decorations not properly secured, especially during adverse weather conditions . Cemetery also assumes no responsibility for flowers and/or decorations not removed by posted disposal dates, or flowers/decorations removed from the premises without permission of Owners or Cemetery personnel.
(f) Flags and flag holders will only be permitted on individual graves during a 10-day period over Memorial Day, Independence Day and Veterans Day. If you wish to retain your own flag holder for reuse, you must remove it before the aforementioned time periods expire. Those flags and holders that remain will be removed and stored for general distribution at the next proper holiday.
(g) No articles of any kind except those specifically authorized by these Rules and Regulations shall be permitted on any interment space, lot or other part of the Cemetery. The City shall have full authority to remove immediately, from any type of interment space or any part of the Cemetery, anything that may have been placed thereon without such specific authorization.
(h) ANY DAMAGE OR LOSS THAT IS A RESULT OF NOT OBSERVING THE ABOVE RULES AND REGULATIONS IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE INTERMENT RIGHT OWNER. (Res. 19-74. Passed 6-3-19.)
