Council told cemetery fund will be closed; maintenance to continue under general fund
Summary
Staff said the cemetery fund will be folded into the general fund for administrative housekeeping because it no longer generates meaningful revenue; maintenance will remain funded through the general fund.
During questions on fund balance, staff explained the cemetery fund is being removed and absorbed into the general fund because it no longer generates sufficient revenue to stand alone. As finance staff explained, "the cemetery fund is actually being removed as a fund and it's going to be placed into the general fund in this budget year," and maintenance responsibilities will continue under the clerk and general fund transfers.
Council members asked whether the change would affect the level of maintenance; staff said the move is administrative only and should not change service levels. The funding move was presented as an efficiency step in bookkeeping and not as a policy change reducing maintenance services.
