RULES
Lawns in the Cemetery are mowed twice a week. Items placed on lawn areas will be removed and discarded on those days to accommodate mowing.
Access to the Cemetery is restricted from 11:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m.
The speed limit inside the Cemetery is 15 miles per hour.
Horses and dogs are not allowed in the Cemetery at any time.
A complete cleanup of all flowers and grave decorations takes place on:
The first Monday in April
The Monday following Memorial Day
The first Monday in November
Fresh cut flowers are permitted any time of the year as long as they are placed in a vase that is permanently attached to a headstone. However, fresh flowers may be removed and discarded when they become unsightly. Artificial (dried, silk or plastic) flowers and any other type of grave decorations (pinwheels, shepherd hooks, craft items, solar lights, etc.) are not permitted from April 1 to November 1 with the exception of holidays. Funeral flowers are discarded when they become unsightly.
Headstones can be either flat or upright, except in two south sections of the Cemetery (Sections 5 in Plat D and E), where only flat headstones are allowed. Those sections are located on the east and west sides of the maintenance building. An upright stone must be at least 12" high, but cannot exceed 4 1/2 feet in height (old section) or 3 feet in height (new section). All headstones in the old section are required to have a 4" cement mowstrip around the perimeter of the base and all headstones in the new section must have a 6" mowstrip. The combined length of the mowstrip and the headstone cannot exceed 40" per burial space (single headstone) or 80" for two spaces side-by-side (double headstone). Benches are allowed to be set in place of a headstone but must cover two adult spaces. Benches cannot exceed 70" in length and must include at least a 6" perimeter mowstrip around the entire perimeter of the bench. The bench must sit entirely on a stone or concrete base so that there is no open space underneath the bench. Headstones should not be placed earlier than three months following an interment due to settling of the ground. The City requires a 24-hour notice before any headstone can be installed in the Cemetery. Monument companies (or families who chose to set their own headstone) should call 801-546-1235 when they plan to set a headstone in the Cemetery. A permit fee of $150.00 must be paid prior to setting any headstone in the new section. Failure to obtain a permit will result in a $1,000.00 fine.
