Crown Hill Cemetery requests assistance; board notes budget timing
Summary
Supervisor Robert J. Meelan reported a letter from Crown Hill Cemetery requesting funds and said cemeteries cannot use perpetual care principal (only interest). He noted the Town Budget will be submitted to the clerk on Sept. 30; the minutes state the cemetery has sought about $365,000 from various sources for needs beyond the budget.
Supervisor Robert J. Meelan told the board the Town Budget will be given to the Town Clerk on Sept. 30 and reported receipt of a letter from Crown Hill Cemetery requesting funds to help cover expenses. The minutes state the cemetery cannot use perpetual care principal — only the interest — and that the cemetery has requested approximately $365,000 from different places for monies above what has been budgeted.
Meelan said the cemetery needs road and drainage work and suggested the Town might offer in-kind services. The meeting record does not specify which line items (if any) would fund assistance, nor does it identify grant sources or match requirements for the cited $365,000 figure; the amount is recorded in the minutes as an approximate total from the cemetery's communications.
