CEMETERY BOARD, Springvale Cemetery Policy <br />County Administrator, Robert Wilson was present and said Colleen Lanners is the new County <br />Cemetery Sexton and since she has taken over the position, Ms. Lanners has worked to bring <br />organization and order to the cemetery documentation for Springvale Cemetery. He said Ms. <br />Lanners presented a policy she created using other local cemetery policies to the Cass County <br />Cemetery Board for consideration. He said the Board had feedback that the Board would like input <br />in drafting and setting the policies. He said the policy is presented to the Commission today to <br />discuss the utilization of Springvale and the policies guiding activities at the cemetery going forward. <br />Mrs. Scherling said she is the Commission representative on the Cemetery Board and it is important <br />the policy is updated. She said the policy should be reviewed by the Cemetery Board and given a <br />recommendation to the Commission for approval. Mrs. Scherling said there was discussion at the <br />Cemetery Board meeting regarding who the cemetery is for and if the County should sell lots. She <br />said she requested to find out how much space is available and if it is feasible to sell lots. <br />Ms. Lanners said she is not aware that there has ever been a policy adopted for Springvale, she <br />said the previous sexton made decisions on selling and saving spots. She said she needs direction <br />on how to handle garbage and decorations at Springvale. Ms. Lanners said if Springvale is limited to <br />burials for indigent people, there is not a concern for space. She said the concern would come if the <br />public is able to buy lots. She said guidance from the Commission and Cemetery Board is needed to <br />give families guidance. <br />Mr. Peterson said if guidance is needed, the policy should be brought to the Cemetery Board and <br />the Board should make a recommendation to the Commission. He said it seems that the policy <br />contains a lot of common sense and can be used as a guideline until the policy is formally adopted. <br />MOTION, passed <br />Mr. Peterson moved and Mrs. Scherling seconded to table action and direct the <br />County Administrator and County Sexton to bring the policy to the Cemetery <br />Board for review. On roll call vote, the motion carried unanimously. <br />14.
