Newark committee approves $2,529 reimbursement for cemetery monument
Summary
The Newark City Council finance committee approved returning $2,529 to the fund to reimburse the city for a monument placed at a cemetery after a private donation was provided, voting unanimously to move the item to full council.
The Newark City Council finance committee approved a $2,529 reimbursement to restore funds the city paid for a cemetery monument, the committee’s meeting record shows.
A committee speaker said the appropriation is a reimbursement: “This appropriation is in fact a reimbursement. About a year ago, we finished up on a cannon at the cemetery and then we put a monument next to the cemetery,” the speaker said, adding that a private donation was intended to cover the cost and the committee is asking to return the money to the fund.
Council member Barker and Council member Chude are named in the meeting record as mover and seconder of the motion to approve the reimbursement. The finance committee recorded the motion as passing unanimously (noted in the transcript as 4-0).
The action was presented as an administrative reimbursement; no additional discussion or conditions were recorded in the committee’s segment. The finance committee then concluded and the Service Committee convened.
