Summary

Commissioners discussed veteran marker orders and contractor coordination for several headstones; JM Granite Works confirmed work on one stone but must provide a current certificate of liability before setting foundations.

The commission discussed coordination with contractors to set veteran markers and new headstones. Susan Lyons said she received an order from Centec for veteran markers and that "JM Granite Works, Jonathan Maurice, [said] that it was done and they would be doing the foundation." She added that JM's certificate of liability had expired July 10, 2025 and that the company must provide an updated certificate before the commission will proceed with site work.

Matt Couillard said he would raise the flag and install the holder once a veteran's stone is set. Lyons said she would provide JM Granite Works and groundsworker Joe Mangan's contact information to family members and contractors to coordinate foundations and resetting. The commission did not record a separate vote on any individual installation; the discussion focused on confirming contractors and ensuring proper insurance documentation before work proceeds.
