Cemetery commission to advertise use of $2,000 Greene County Foundation grant; council cautions on township rules
Summary
Cemetery Commission requested advertising to use a $2,000 grant from the Greene County Foundation. A council member reminded commissioners that township cemeteries may require township trustee approval before county funds are spent; council approved advertising the appropriation.
A representative of the Cemetery Commission asked the council to advertise for use of a $2,000 grant from the Greene County Foundation to support cemetery work. A council member raised a statutory point: work on township‑maintained cemeteries may require coordination with the township trustee rather than a county appropriation. The commissioner agreed to check and follow statutory rules. The council moved, seconded and approved advertising the appropriation to the Cemetery Commission fund.
The discussion emphasized ensuring the county follows statutory authority and avoids duplicative appropriations when township funds or trustees have control of a site.
