Good to know

Before you set a headstone

Contact a Cemetery Committee member before setting a headstone, doing permanent masonry work or making any other improvement in the cemetery. Upright headstones are allowed at the family’s discretion; the Committee isn’t responsible for accidental damage to them when nearby graves are dug.

Cemetery rules

  • No grave or plot may be enclosed by a fence, rail, concrete or metal wall, or any other enclosure.
  • No trees, shrubs, plants or flowers may be planted without the Cemetery Committee’s written consent. Artificial flowers are allowed in the winter months.
  • The Committee may remove trees, branches or roots that become dangerous or unsightly, and any monument or inscription it considers improper. Costs are charged against the plot, and no burial is allowed there until they are paid.
  • Plots may not be raised above the surrounding ground and no capping is allowed. The cost of levelling is charged against the plot.
  • Heavy loads may not enter the cemetery when the Committee thinks they could damage the roads or paths.
  • No disinterment without the Committee’s written order, and graves may only be opened by the Committee.
  • All graves must be at least 5½ feet deep.
  • Visitors are welcome from sunrise to sunset. Firearms are not allowed except at military funerals, and no one may deface or damage headstones, monuments, fences or other structures.

The Cemetery Bylaw is the official wording. If you have a question that isn’t covered here, please call the Village office.
