Summary

DPW Director Craig Hale said current cemetery fees appear misaligned with peer communities and recommended revisions; the board scheduled the revised fees for a public hearing at its next meeting.

Director Craig Hale told the board that the recently adopted cemetery fee schedule "seemed a bit off" compared with Lakes Region communities and that he would recommend fee adjustments. He said his proposed changes were reasonable in comparison to other towns and should be publicly noticed as a hearing item.

The board agreed to place the revised fees on the next meeting agenda as a public hearing so residents can comment before the board considers adoption.
