· Conduct Within the Cemetery ·

  1. Visitors are reminded that cemetery grounds are considered sacred and a strict observance of accepted decorum shall be required at all times.
  2. Visitors will use the walks and roads provided. In the event of injuries, the City is in no way liable.
  3. Pets, food, and firearms, other than those carried by police officers or used in military honor funeral services, shall be prohibited in the cemetery.

  5. No person shall drive any vehicle within the cemetery except upon the driveways prepared and designated for that purpose, and such vehicles shall be operated in excess of the posted speed limit of 15 mph. Vehicles shall drive on the right side, and shall not drive or park off of hard-surfaced roads. Parking or leaving any vehicle on any road or driveway within the cemetery at such location or in such position as to prevent any other car or vehicle from passing the same is prohibited, and if so parked or left, the management reserves the right to have the vehicle removed.
  6. It shall be unlawful for any person to desecrate or injure the cemetery, or any lot, grave, tomb, gravestone, monument, fence, tree or shrubbery therein, or to break, cut, injure, or disturb any fish or wildlife within the cemetery.
  7. Receptacles for waste materials are placed at convenient locations throughout the cemetery. The placing or disposing of debris at any other location is prohibited.
