Consult with cemetery staff regarding any grave improvements.
It is the responsibility of the city to...
Maintain 109 acres of cemetery grounds, coordinate opening and closing of graves, and provide for the perpetual care, upkeep and maintenance needs of the cemeteries. During mowing season, cemeteries are mowed weekly.
