Summary

The chair said the town has a cemetery database and asked staff and the cemetery committee to update records so the town can budget for cemetery maintenance; the report the chair used dated to 2016 and some sites were missing.

The chair said he had created a database of all town cemeteries and that the list was shorter than expected; he asked the cemetery committee and staff to update a 2016 report and supply current information so the board can budget for maintenance. "I created a database of all cemeteries. There's not as many as I thought," the chair said.

Board members acknowledged the task will be a heavy lift and agreed to work with committee members to make the inventory complete before identifying maintenance priorities and potential budget line items.
