In May of 2019, the Board of Cemetery Commissioners and department staff began concept planning to develop new burial space within Pine Grove. In 2020, Annual Town Meeting appropriated $30,000 to accomplish final design and prepare associated construction documents.
The proposed project generally includes:
- Final design between February and April of 2021;
- A request for construction funding at 2021 Annual Town Meeting;
- Creation of approximately 900 new graves, including conventional and green burial;
- Installation of a paved drive connecting the new section to the existing internal driveways;
- Limited additional vegetative clearing;
- Finished landscape improvements, including trees and other plantings;
The Board of Cemetery Commissioners look forward to sharing this information with the community and hope you can attend.
