Resident donates wooden fence for Plain Dealing cemetery; council accepts
Summary
Bill Clements offered to fund a wooden fence (48 feet long, 6 feet high) at the town cemetery; Alderman Jeff Benson moved to accept the donation and the board voted unanimously to approve the placement.
Bill Clements appeared before the Board of Aldermen on June 10 to propose placing a wooden fence at the town cemetery. Clements told the board he would pay for the fence, which the minutes record as 48 feet long and 6 feet high.
Alderman Jeff Benson moved to accept Mr. Clements' proposal and Alderman Shanithia Gay seconded. The council voted unanimously to accept the donation and approved placement of the fence.
Why it matters: a funded, resident-provided improvement affects the cemetery's appearance and upkeep without requiring town capital expenditure.
What's next: council acceptance was recorded; the minutes do not specify installation timing or permits, nor do they record any public comment on the item.
