Board weighs modest cemetery plot-fee increase to cover upkeep
Summary
Board members discussed raising cemetery plot fees by a modest amount to fund maintenance and rising costs, citing brush clearing and gasoline as drivers of higher expenses.
During the budget work session members raised concerns about cemetery maintenance and whether plot fees should be increased to cover rising costs such as gasoline and brush clearing.
One participant described finding graves while clearing woods and urged the board to consider a fee hike to support long‑term upkeep: "To raise them, extra $100 or something to help those expenses, I think everybody would think that's fair," the speaker said. No change was adopted; members said they would consider the cost and include related figures when they draft the budget.
