monuments. They must be in line with the monument and be
of reasonable size and shape, not more than 4 feet high and

purchasing shrubs, it is advisable to consult with the
Supervisor for suggestions about type and size. The
Corporation may remove any trees or shrubs that are in any way
detrimental to lots, drains, road or walks, or prejudicial to
the general appearance of the grounds of inconvenient to the
public. |
| Flower beds are not allowed in
lots or graves. |
| Vases, urns and flower stands
not properly cared for and/or are not filled with plants by
the 20th of June in any year shall be removed from the lot. |

walls, but-stone copings and hedges in and around lots become
unsightly they are prohibited. |

doing any work within the cemetery shall be removed without

courteous hearing by the Supervisor of any problem relating to
your plot. |

clean, litter-free site. |
